I recently downloaded perl, so i decided i would configure apache to run the scripts so i wouldent have to upload them to test them. however i must have done something wrong because now every time try to access a .pl file through [localhost...] i get an 403 Forbidden error. does anyone know what i might have done wrong?

What does your server error log have to say about it?

The usual cause is file permissions -- The .pl files must be marked as executable.
