What directory do I upload my CGI scripts to?
CGI scripts are executable from anywhere within your "public_html" directory. They do not need to be placed in a CGI-BIN. However for safety reasons we recommend you place them in the public_html/cgi-bin/ subdirectory of your account. Most scripts are then generally CHMODDED to 755.
If you use Microsoft FrontPage, it is recommended that you put them within your /cgi-bin/ directory so FrontPage will not change your permission settings on these files.
