Dear Hilary,

If I remember corretly Webstar grew out of MacHTTP, which I occasionally use
when testing. There I just put the scripts and html in the same folder as
the MacHTTP application. Also, don't forget to save the scripts as CGI, not
as normal MacPerl scripts, so it has the little executable handle for the
server to use. Let me know if I can help further.
