Check any 'Content-type' header that you send.  The header should be
'Content-type: text/html'.  If you are not sending a 'Content-type' header,
then you should be.  To do this simply put one of the following statements
in your code:

# if you are using Lincoln Stein's CGI.pm module.
print CGI->header();

or

# if you are NOT using Lincoln Stein's CGI.pm module.
print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";

The reason the HTML is being read as plain text, is due to the fact Netscape
and Opera are being the content is 'Content-type: text/plain'.
