in thread Using parent and child processes in perl

Thanks a lot! One last question, instead of redirecting, I would also be able to process the content of the $tempfile inside the parent itself, won't i? Once again, thanks a bunch!

    You would then still have the same problem you started with: a single 4-5 minute HTTP request. The whole point is to have each request finish quickly, which is how we'll avoid the server error you mentioned in the OP.

      Okay, so I redirect from parent and read the $tempfile in a new script then? Thanks a lot!
