Some questions about perl/cgi on Tripod
I'm trying to make a webpage where every single HTML page which gets accessed gets formated by the server before it gets sent to the user. In other words, something like IGN, DcEmulation.com, or other sites where every page is branded with the same consistent formatting which you can change if you wish without changing every single page. Of course, it wouldn't be as complicated as anything the sites I just mentioned. I've been doing a tiny bit of research, and I'd just like to know how you can make a script get processed on every single page or if thats even possible. So far, I've just tried to install a simple 404 error redirector to no avail. I'm on Tripod, so I know that probably will screw up a few things. So if anybody has tried CGI on a tripod site, if they have anything to say about it or could redirect me to a good perl CGI site with Tripod workable scripts please, it'd help me out a lot. If this is impossible, or if I'm in over my head and sound like a newbie idiot, please tell me. I'd be thankful for any advice I could receive, especially if anybody out there has tried to use CGI with Tripod.

i am not sure u can use perl on their servers.
also u need to know where their perl is on the server.

Thanks
Well, I figured it out. I just put a call to two javascripts before and after my main content, and the javascript puts all the formatting around the content. All I have to do is update those two javascript files for it to work. I must've had tunnel vision to be trying all this crap in perl! Thanks though, I'll definetly consider PHP-Nuke if things start sucking again.
