A) Configure Perl Scripts

The first line of both Perl Script specify the location of PERL in your webhost.

The Default value is: #!/usr/bin/perl

Generally this is the location in almost all servers. 

In some cases this may be;

#!/usr/sbin/perl

If you are not sure, verify it with your server administrator then make necessary changes in both scripts. Please don't remove the '#' sign at the beginning. You don't have to change the default value if the Script works properly.

Open 'floatingads.cgi' file in any Text editor like Notepad and make necessary changes to the following variables.

Location of Your Sales Page:

$ReferrerURL = "http://www.ecommercedealers.com/floatingads/";

Location of page.cgi Script:

$PageLoader = 'http://www.ecommercedealers.com/cgi-bin/floatingads/page.cgi';

You have to change the default values to make commission for each sale.

Then, Save the 'floatingads.cgi' file

Open the 'page.cgi' file in Notepad and enter your Affiliate IDs instead of default values.

Then, Save the 'page.cgi' file


PS: No CHANGES are necessary in other files.


B) Upload Perl Scripts, Templates and the Database.

Create a directory in the /cgi-bin/ folder of your site named 'floatingads'

Then upload the following files in ASCII (PLAIN TEXT) MODE. If you uploaded in Binary mode by mistake, it will not work. 


- floatingads.cgi
- page.cgi
- HAtemplate.js
- VAtemplate.js
- Hscript.js
- Vscript.js
- CBData.csv

Then, Set CHMOD (global execute permissions) to the files as follows:

CHMOD 755 to both Scripts - 'floatingads.cgi' and 'page.cgi'

CHMOD all other files to 777 (HAtemplate.js, VAtemplate.js, Hscript.js, Vscript.js and 'CBData.csv'.

Your One Time Only Work is over. You can use the same script to install FloatingAds for ANY number of web sites.
