just use this code: ===START CODE=== $filename="my_file"; #Set the filename open(A,$filename) || die "Waaah! The open didn't work: $!"; #Open the file in $filename or do what MSWindows always does @a=<A>; #Put the filehandle A in the array @a; print "Content-Type: text/html\nPragma: No-cache\n\n"; #Take away the 'Pragma: No-cache' bit if u want the browser to cache it print @a; #Spits it out close A; #Close the filehandle (not always neccesary) ====END CODE====
