htaccess and finding realative address
 

I saw the other thread but I still couldnt get it to go. i dont have perl installed or any of the other scripts. I tried copying the commands placed in the other thread to a notepad file and renamed it file.cgi and uploaded to the server, chmodded it, and tried to run it and i get a forbidden error all the time. Any ideas? i think its me using notepad but i dont knwo what else to do. Please help, this has been causing me headaches for a couple days now.
