Hi I am new to perl CGI as you might guess with my question ...
I have a simeple CGI script that makes a Database connection and retreves the records.
When I run the script from the command line ..the html generated from the command Line works just fine,
But when I access it from the web ..the html before the actual CGI starts works but does not display the html after CGI part in the script.Am I missing something
The HTML that is visble up to
print "<font color=blue><i>Connection is being set";
after that it just does not show anything ...........
