Apache and CGI-perl

| Hello everybody,
I am in trouble:
I am trying to just fill a html form and submit the data to a second
script nameage.cgi (perl language) . But even if the httpd.conf have
Scriptalias /cgi-bin/ "/Library/Webserver/CGI-Executables", AddHandler
cgi-script .cgi, ExecCGI option, I do not manage to execute the cgi
script = it print the script in the web browser but no real result is
given. What can I do ?
Thanks in advance.
Here are the scripts:
TEST.html =
<html> <head>
<title>Name and Age</title>
</head>
<body>
<form action="/Library/Webserver/CGI-Executables/nameage.cgi"
method=POST>
Enter your name: <input type=text name="name"><p>
Enter your age: <input type=text name="age"><p>
<input type=submit>
</form>
</body> </html>
name.cgi =
#!/usr/local/bin/perl
# nameage.cgi
require 'cgi-lib.pl'
&ReadParse(*input);
print "Content-Type: text/html\r\n\r\n";
print "<html> <head>\n";
print "<title>Name and Age</title>\n";
print "</head>\n";
print "<body>\n";
print "Hello, " . $input{'name'} . ". You are\n";
print $input{'age'} . " years old.<p>\n";
print "</body> </html>\n";

I did not need AddHandler in httpd.conf. Mine is still commented out and
works just fine. I also did not need to put ExecCGI in my Options
statement either. I assume these were built in or enabled at build time.

Your ScriptAlias is /cgi-bin/. That means your action should be:
action=/cgi-bin/nameage.cgi
