Hi,
I want to download Perl/CGI script from another web page. But when i try to save the file it executes the script and save the output in my file.
Is there any way I can download the Perl scripts from net.

Hi,

To clear some confusion that other webmasters are probably facing by reading this post, this post is referring to downloading a script that is being currently used by the site...not a site that lets you download scripts...ex. downloading the perl scripts for this forum software (UBB).

To the best of my knowledge, this is impossible to download from a script that is currently being used on a site. When accessed through a url or using the save..as on the browser will run the script on the "Server's Side" then send the results back to which is what this post is referring to as executing the script. You will save a file with the output of the script that executed.
