I don't think it should work either under W2K, W98, or any other os,
without the proper header being sent:
puts(1,"Content type: text/html\n\n")
puts(1,"Hello World\n")
Secondly, unless I misread your post, you're calling the program
euphoria, but have saved it to disk as euphoria.ex or euphoria.exe.
Thirdly, if it is an .ex file, you need to allow it to run ex.exe -
#!ex -- in the very first line
will work if ex.exe is in the cgi-bin directory, and everything has the
proper ownership and permissions.
Lastly, if you truly "get nothing" - no 404 or Server Error, then the
program is probably not even running. See #3.
Not knowing (or wanting to know) anything more about W2K, I think that's
about all I can contribute.
