Eureka! In fact I tried every method, but, as the examples didn't really correspond to my problem, I don't know if I did it well. Anyway nothing worked! I talked with one of my friend who finally explained me he had been confronted to the same problem. At the beginning of my script I had written "my $cgi = CGI -> new;" and the solution was to put "our $cgi = CGI -> new;".
Anyway thank you for your help, I have learn some interesting things.
