Hi Jame (of 1:120/544),

Tripod's perl ignores the #! path specified at the beginning of the perl 
script.  They say that the "system" resolves the necessary path for all the 
perl resources.  :((((  Ya.. sure.

My first reply from Tripod tech support was an actual person who gave me the 
"clue" to use the specific path in my script.  But when I wrote back to 
tech-help to report that the "clue" didn't work, I got a canned system form 
letter pointing me to OUTSIDE (nonTripod) cgi resources!

So..  I haven't gotten very far with implementing eventcalendar.pl    

Meanwhile I built my calendar from scratch.  :(((   Took me the better part of 
a day to finish.  See http://the-bridge-church.tripod.com, then ENTER, then 
look for NIKAO in the left menu, then look for "event calendar" in the main 
window.

Nermware's eventcalendar would have made the job SO much easier!
