I followed a tutorial on FLash kit that shows you how to create a form in MX using COmponent Set 2 and a Perl script that goes in your CGI Bin. the tutorial is [here](http://www.flashkit.com/tutorials/Interactivity/CGI_Form-Thomas_W-778/index.php)

MY movie works when I test it in flash although I get no e-mail parsed to my inbox although the script is online. However, when I’ve uploaded the movie in ASCII and changed the CHMOD to 755 the flash movie doesn’t work. It shows me therror message box saying I haven’t inputted my name, although I have filled all the boxes.

This leads me to believe the problem is with the Perl script no returning the variables?

Has anyone any suggestions or used this tutorial.
