No, the HTML directory is website (the folder name for my website), but the
folder for my scripts is in my website, not under the Xitami folder..

It'd get real messy having my website one place and my scripts another, is
this the only way of doing it?

Does it look like this in the setup???

Main HTML directory:     webpages
Main CGI directory:     scripts
CGI URLs start with:  /scripts

And is the scripts forder under the Xitami folder?
