Syntax Error
It seems that I get a syntax error when I try and call a variable in the html.pl file. I get the following error at
http://216.221.172.77/cgi-bin/db/db.cgi:
Code:
CGI ERROR
==========================================
Error Message : Error loading required libraries.
Check that they exist, permissions are set correctly and that they compile.
Reason: syntax error at ./html.pl line 244, near "Posted $rec{'PostDate'} | $rec"
syntax error at ./html.pl line 244, near "/10 stars
Here's the html.pl file:
http://216.221.172.77/html.pl.txt
Also, here's the .cfg and .cgi files:
http://216.221.172.77/default.cfg.txt
http://216.221.172.77/db.cgi.txt

Thanks much in advance
