Hi all:
I am a newbie in terms of PERL.

Here's what i want to do. I ahve a HTML page that has a button on it.
I want a user to click on that button, and when he does that, I just
want a simple unix sh script to be executed on a unix box.

What is the easiest way to do this?

Thanks,
Bharat

Um, the only reference to perl here is that you are new to it. I don't see
where perl fits into your problem: "HTML -> sh script". Try a general CGI
list.
