Hi, Here is what I want to do.

Hi,
Here is what I want to do.
1. User enters data into HTML form.
2. The form in HTML calls cgi file to store the data in DBM files.
3. The cgi program stores the data
4. After storing data, it should automatically call another html.

The First 3 steps works fine, but I am not able to redirect to an html file.
I don't want to use
print "a(href ...&quot thing in the perl program. I do not want to give a link, the program should automatically go to html file.
Is there something in Perl like redirect (in ASP)?
Please tell me how to do this.


Thanks
S

No, Perl doesn't have anything like that.
What you need to do is have the perl output the html <META> tag for redirection. I don't have the syntax offhand for that tag, but that'll do the trick in the same way ASP does it.

Just do this:

print "Location: [URL unfurl="true"]http://www.somewhere.com\n\n";[/URL]
