Re(Amel): Perl CGI, IIS and other unholy unions

Umm,
I'm running your code and getting no problems at all, and syntactically the code looks sound.

Maybe double check that you didn't make an error on the box in question that is not showing here. Or that that server is configured to execute cgi scripts.

As for info on the Comma operator:

Thanks for the tips, Amel. What's particularly troubling is that running this from the command line on an AS Perl 5.006001 box does give the correct results, including the "4". (I know there could be differences in installation, etc., but one step at a time...) This just in: I asked the admins to run this script from the command line on the IIS server, and they got: `<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <body> 1<br>2<br>3<br>4<br>5<br>6<br></body></html>` [download] So... the difference seems to be in the CGI-serving of the results to the client via the browser. (A fair assessment?) Some difference in the Perl environment running under IIS, or similar??? Thanks again. - Mush	[reply] [d/l]
