Hi everyone!
I'm in the Environmental Horticulture at the University of Florida and I'm trying to build an online, multiple-entry key to help students identify the plant families. I have permission to modify and build on a similar script that was written at Colby College, but the computer people there don't have time (understandably) to help me with basic questions. So I'm hoping that someone here can help me out.
Here is the Colby site: http://www.colby.edu/info.tech/BI211/PlantFamilyID.html
Here is the Colby script: http://www.colby.edu/info.tech/BI211/plant_id.c
I've already downloaded and installed the Xcode Developer Tools, so I should be good-to-go on compiling the CGI in Terminal. (Right?) I also set up a free account at http://free1.awardspace.com/ so I can run the CGI there.
So what now?
As I understand it, I copy the Colby script into TextEdit and save it as a plain text file. Do I also need to get those other things like "util.c" and "strings.h"? Do I compile them separately in Terminal? And what do I upload to the server?
I feel like I'm getting so close to solving this! Thanks to anyone who can help walk me through this!
