Edit the variables in the script(cfg.pl). (If the path to perl on your server is different from #!/usr/local/bin/perl then you will need to change it on the first line in "each scripts (survey-admin.pl, survey.pl, result.pl, and firsttime.pl)." 2) Open header and footer.txt then modify them to fit the layout of your web site. 3) Upload all of the scripts to your cgi-bin then chmod all of them to "755" (you don't need to chmod cfg.pl. just upload it.) 4) Upload all data files to your cgi-bin then chmod them to 777. (iptime.txt, ip.txt, header.txt, and footer.txt) 5) Create a "directory," that you've set the path in the configuration script(cfg.pl) perviously. Chmod the directory to "777". This directory will be used for stroing the survey data files. 6) Run the script- "firsttime.pl." The script will ask you to set up your admin password. Delete the script("firsttime.pl") after the setup progress is completed. 7) Run the script "survey-admin.pl" to create your first survey. And follow the instruction that is given by the admin script. 8) Done. ########################################################################## !!Important!!
