view my TCL script on the Internet explorer
Hello
I wrote some small TCL script which writes some HTML commands.
when I invoke it through the IE I get a blank screen
what should I do to watch my results on MS IE?
can you point me to a simple ready made script so I can learn from it?
I am working on a solaris system
thanks

you could do it with a SSI, but enabling SSI executables is a bad idea.. you would do it like this:

in the html page to be displayed, you put this in the body:

<!--#exec cmd="/path/to/your/script" -->

the output of your script would be displayed when you view the html page that has the SSI in it. this of course requires that apache is set up correctly to enable SSIs and all that.

you could also run your script maually, or via cron and have it dump its output to an html file which is then viewed by you.

In Apache you should add .tcl to the list of CGI program extensions, and make sure mod_cgi is enabled in your Apache (if your server can serve Perl CGI scripts you should be okay). Give the executable chmod to the script also.

For example, I wrote the following test script and it worked on my configuration:

#!/usr/bin/tclsh

puts "Content-Type: text/html\n"
puts "<html><body>Hello World!</body></html>\n"
