W/help from Matt C. This worked: #!/usr/local/bin/perl -w use CGI qw(:standard); use strict; my $myurl = "http://www.quantifier.org/phpquant/";;
print redirect( -URL => $myurl); exit; (His suggestion was this: #!/usr/local/bin/perl -w use CGI qw(:standard); use strict; my $myurl = "http://www.quantifier.org/phpquant/";; print header, start_html ('TESTING!!'), h2("Location: $myurl\n\n"), end_html; However, that wasn't what I needed...

I was drunk! -- Homer Simpson Homer The Vigilante ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Sun, 30 Dec 2001 21:25:24 -0500 (EST) From: KeN ClarK <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: redirect to URL[linux,apache] 1. I'm VERY new. 2. I have the Perl Cookbook & Learning Perl. 3. I can't figure this out, and searches on the web have only shown me MORE complicated methods w/multiple redirect options. WHERE I AM AT: apache shows errors below: [Sun Dec 30 20:42:40 2001] [error] (8)Exec format error: exec of /var/www/cgi-bin/quantdirect.pl failed [Sun Dec 30 20:42:40 2001] [error] [client 66.188.78.192] Premature end of script headers: /var/www/cgi-bin/quantdirect.pl script is HERE: #/usr/local/bin/perl -w use CGI qw(:cgi); use strict; $myurl = "http://www.quantifier.org/phpquant/";; print "Location: $myurl\n\n"; exit; ********* I am fried right now. I have tried this with $url & use strict but received this: Global symbol "$myurl" requires explicit package name at quantdirect.pl line 5. Global symbol "$myurl" requires explicit package name at quantdirect.pl line 7. What documentation tells me HOW to redirect? This file exists with same perms/ownership as other scripts. Looking at those for help have been fruitless. The aim is to put a script in my /var/www/cgi-bin/openwebmail/ dir that gets called by this code snippet: **begin snip** my $temphtml = startform(-action=>"$config{'ow_cgiurl'}/quantdirect.pl") .. # my $temphtml = startform(-action=>"$config{'ow_cgiurl'}/openwebmail.pl") . submit("$lang_text{'continue'}"). " ". button(-name=>"exit", -value=>$lang_text{'exit'}, -onclick=>'window.close();', -override=>'1'). end_form(); **end snip** I've also looked at the openwebmail list and had no luck. I asked a similar question to beginners-cgi but received no answer. ANYone out there to point me in the correct direction??? even if another list... Thanks (be gentle...)
