CGI and Perl - Basics
Please use speaker notes for additional information!
Note that the param(‘dept’) could have been written as param(“dept”).
I put the dept.html code and the spruce.gif image in the begin subdirectory/folder under the public_html directory/folder. Note that I mirror the setup on my hard drive to help me keep a structure to what I am doing.
I put the dept.cgi in the begin subdirectory/folder under the cgi-bin directory/older.
