[MacPerl-WebCGI] Is there a way to run CGI scripts LOCALLY through a Web browser?

[Tom Salmon <salmo004@tc.umn.edu>]

I'm fairly new to Perl, however I have written a number of scripts that run
perfectly fine from a Web server.

My question is can you run CGI scripts (through a Web browser) locally on a
Mac (or PC) without being connected to the internet (i.e. - not from a Web
server, but from the local machine itself). This would be a great way to
test scripts without having to make an Internet connection.

If this is possible, what steps do I need to take in my Perl code (path to
Perl, headers, etc.) to make these scripts run off my local copy of Perl in
a Web browser. How do I set these scripts to be executable or is that even
necessary on a a Mac? Any help would be appreciated.
