Editpage 5.02 ------------- Editpage is a perl CGI script which allows users to edit their web pages through the browser window rather than through the use of a server-based text editor or by downloading, editing and uploading. NOTE: The directory creation and deletion features did not work on WinNT/95 servers. Installation Instructions --------------------------- You should have the following files: File Place In Purpose ----- --------- -------- Edelete.pl cgi-bin Used when script called to delete a file Egetpage.pl cgi-bin Used when script called to get a file for editing *Eglobsub.pl cgi-bin Global variables and subroutines Elistpgs.pl cgi-bin Used when script called to list pages in directory Enewpage.pl cgi-bin Used when script called to create a new page Epresave.pl cgi-bin Used when script called to preview or save changes Eupload.pl cgi-bin Used when script called to receive upload Help.html wherever Helpfile for users to reference if having difficulty Current_Version.txt - Changes from previous version to current version Readme.txt - This file History.txt - Revision History * = requires editing...The only file which requires editing is Eglobsub.pl which requires setting up of global variables. - = read it then trash it but remember not to redistribute these scripts. Remember: ---------- 1. If you run a *nix server, change permissions of all of the files you would like to edit and of the script sections themselves. I used: chmod 755 for the scripts chmod 777 for the directories and files 2. Create a password file following the instructions in Eglobsub.pl Two installation notes courtesy of Carl Evans : (1) Advise web masters that if they change the file extension from "pl" to "cgi" they will need to edit ALL the *.pl files (for the include statement) and also edit the *.pl filename in the form.html file. Explanation: At the beginning of each script is the line: require 'Eglobsub.pl'; If you change the script names to *.cgi you'll need to change this line to require 'Eglobsub.cgi'; (2) Advise web masters that the path called out in the form statement pointing to Elistpgs.pl will probably have to be edited to make the form's path match their server's configuration. --------------- Please do not redistribute this script. It is free of charge to anyone who requests it from me. Thank you for trying Editpage. --Bernard Sowa http://www.zonecoaster.com/ bernard@zonecoaster.com
