Executing Announcer

Executing Announcer Subscription Screens

You can call the Announcer subscription screens one of two ways.  One being direct call of the script and the other using server side inludes.

To call direct, just point your links to the script such as:

http://www.domain.com/cgi-bin/announcer/announcer.pl

To use SSI, you would call Announcer such as:

<!--#exec cgi="/cgi-bin/announcer/announcer.pl"-->

or 

<!--#include virtual="/cgi-bin/announcer/announcer.pl"-->

You will need to substitute the correct path to your Announcer install.

The method in which you call Announcer using SSI is dependent on your server.  You may need to contact your server admin or server support for more information on this.
