How about LWP::UserAgent ? Besides, did you make the <head></head> in your index.html ? ( I don't know if this is nessary or not, but I always get the right result with <head></head> and the file.html as a full path)
And Umm.... Is the "Page cannot be found" Comes up by your server ( Standard 404 ), or Explorer Error, or your script ? Normally, if a scripts take a long time to run, but not handling a big file, it's likely be you script cannot be run properly... So, do you confirm #!/perl/bin/perl -W is the right place for your Perl compiler's loc declaration ? For my Apache, I have to type #!C:/Perl/bin/Perl.exe -wT To test is, you may go to dosprompt and type perl c:\yourscriptpath\yourscrip.pl ----- Original Message ----- From: "Octavian Rasnita" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, June 26, 2002 8:36 PM Subject: What is wrong?
