i had the same snag. i *think* what i was missing was that the very first header that's included with 'perlSendHeaders on' is "HTTP/1.1 200 OK" line. check and see if your 'content-type' stuff is in a monospaced font (courier, as opposed to times or helvetica). if it is, that is, it looks like it's within <pre></pre> tags, then it's been sent as plain text, not as html. to double-check, put <b> or <i> in your output. if it *is* just plain text, then apache didn't know what to do with your output, perhaps because there was no "HTTP" line, and bailed, telling the browser to expect text/plain instead of what you intended. maybe. just guessing.
