Download perl / cgi scripts from web siteWhile I know it is possible to download the HTML, the pictures, zip files, text files from a website - I was wondering if and how it is possible to download the code for the cgi scripts without them having to provide the source code for their scripts.
Thank you |

They are stored in a folder that doesn't get interpreted or they are stored in a plain text format and just spit out with the -say- .cgi extension. Ex send headers: Content-Type: application/text' Content-disposition: filename="script.cgi" |

Ok, I misunderstood the question - I thought it was about how can a script file be served (on purpose) without being actually interpreted. Scripts - no, you cannot download (or should not be able to if the server is properly configured). If you can then the admin needs to be fired on the spot. |
