Off The Topic But Please Help....

Hi, I have installed apache for the first time and am using it now for my php and cgi development. But I have two problems, please help although they are off the topic. 1. In my htdocs folder, I am able to access any file which is in the htdocs folder but I am not able to access any file which in the sub folder of htdocs. It says file not found. Lets suppose If I have a test.php file in php folder in htdocs and I access it in http://localhost/php/test.php than it says file not found although it is in php folder in htdocs. 2. How do I configure apache to handle cgi. My cgi is installed in c:\perl\ Where my cgi scripts should be placed in the apache folder. Thanks again Statbat
