how can I get firefox to execute perl scripts from local files
I have created perl scripts on my local host (file type ".pl"). In MS Windows I have associated that type to a perl interpreter installed on my local host. IE allows me to create links to them and to execute them (after asking for permission). How can I get firefox to do the same? It doesn't seem to allow me to add application types, only to change those that are already defined. As a result, in firefox, they just show up as text, instead of being executed.
