| Tried to save a perl file in Notepad, Wordpad AND Textpad. After opening a script that works and saving it with a new name (with .pl extension). There's a slew of choices in the various dropdowns. Some add .txt., which I also tried simply renaming the file (deleting the .txt), but that did not work either.
background:
The perl script powers an online calculator. We originally outsourced the project and everything worked fine. Since then, we've made some updates to the graphics on the website. A java script opens up a pop-up window to start the calculator. The calculator allows the user to enter in variables and sends them to a webpage that show them how using our product will save them money. That end webpage is coded IN the perl script.
note - I am uploading the file as asci (not binary) using FTP Pro.
When I save another .pl file and upload, the pop-up says that it cannot find the file. However, the original file works.
The Going Theory:
In the proccess of saving the file, I am converting the file to the wrong format. |
