in reply to CGI: Server error on meta tag

So where do you define meta?

I know it's exported optionally by CGI.pm, but I don't see you doing that anywhere. I suggest you do it

use CGI qw[ meta ];
Please read the CGI.pm documentation for further details.

    Thanks, PodMaster. I don't see that requirement anywhere in the documentation for CGI.pm, but it seems to have done the trick. (I'm looking here - is there somewhere else that has more information?)

    Thanks again!

      requirement?

      It's a big document, you must read it till your eyes bleed ;)

      Where did you get the idea to use meta instead of $query->meta()?

      It should have been from USING-THE-FUNCTION-ORIENTED-INTERFACE, which explains lots.

        I wondered why the CGI Doc page seemed to get redder and redder the more I stared at it. ;o)

        I used meta from the CREATING THE HTML DOCUMENT HEADER section, several lines down, under the heading 'And here's how to create an HTTP-EQUIV <META> tag'.

        I just started working with this module a few days ago, so I really appreciate all your input - thanks!
