Presumably, you are talking more about the "die" statement's
output. Yes, the "yipes!" output would NOT make a browser very
happy.
Bruce is right. At the very beginning of your script, you probably
ought to start with:
print <<END;
Content: text/plain
<html>
<head>
<title>Diagnostic output from $0</title>
</head>
<body>
<pre>
END
...and then close with
print <<END;
</pre>
</body>
</html>
END
Really, trying to do all of this in the blind has got to be molto
frustrating. Doesn't verio offer you any pre-debugged CGI scripts
that you could crib from?
