Please attribute stuff when you reply, I don't read everything and almost
missed your question.

Does any CGI work for you at all?
If you do just a simple: print "Content-type: text/plain\n\nHello there!\n"
does it show up in the browser?

Pick a page you like (preferably fairly small).
telnet www.site.com http
GET /rest-of-url.html
Study the output to see how it was done.
Alternatively, get a book on html. Any book on html should do.
