Thanks all who replied. From your post i gather that i need to handle my redirect client side....so.....
#!/usr/bin/perl use CGI qw(:standard); print header;
$| = 1;
print "hi\n"; sleep 3; # i would actually do a lot of other stuff here
print<<EOF <script language="javascript"> <!--
location.replace("http://www.yahoo.com");
--> </script>
EOF
If you're going with something like that, use a META "refresh" tag, instead of having the script sleep.
