Standalone CGI

In order to use Steve Kallestad's Syntax Highlighter as a standalone CGI, the following requirements must be met:

  • Web Server that supports a CGI interface (i.e. Apache, lighthttpd, etc.)
  • Perl - at least version 5.8.1 to be safe, although I have not tested it with earlier perl versions, so you may find success with earlier versions.
  • The perl module Syntax::Highlight::Universal
  • In it's current state (0.3), the prototype and scriptaculous libraries are required. This requirement should be removed in a future version.

Chances are that you do not have the Syntax::Highlight::Universal module installed, so I also have a page describing that process as well. Installing Syntax::Highlight::Universal

If you cannot meet any of these requirements, you can still use the Demo to get the job done.
