        Hey Bill,
        
        Thanks for the information. 
        I couldn't agree anymore that there is no reason not
        to call pre-built module.
        
        About the debugging: 
        Maybe I am not doing right, I do hope ther is a more
        ideal way to debug web programming. 
        
        I will take a good look at the site you  mentioned. 
        
        I read another email asking about emulating browser. 
        If it can be done, then it will be a much efficient
        way to debug. 
        
        Have fun!
        Mike
        
Mike - 
        If I'm reading your requirements right - 
I don't find debugging hard with CGI.pm.
Granted I'm a real newbie and I'm not doing anything 
earth shakingly difficult, but still.
You run the program from the command line to make sure it
actually runs - you can pass your param's in from the command line - 
and if it spits out HTML you call it again from your browser....

i.e. (what I'm supposed to be doing instead of reading this digest :-)

[EMAIL PROTECTED] admin]$ ./index.pl league=mens page=admin
Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>

xml:lang="en-US"><head><

etc etc etc.....

or just as likely in my case
[EMAIL PROTECTED] admin]$ ./index.pl league=mens page=admin
Missing right curly or square bracket at ./index.pl line 832, at end of
line
syntax error at ./index.pl line 832, at EOF
Execution of ./index.pl aborted due to compilation errors.
