in thread Flawless Script problems?

+ 1000000 votes for you (if i had that many that's how many you'd get, bad sadly I only have two left :( ). I took the line off and it runs like it should have the entire time! I have two questions for you though.

If programming in commandline will you ever need to use CGI.pm then? Sorry if these seems stupid but I just stopped working on the web so I can learn perl quicker by debugging on my own system.

If this is to be run on linux would they need to add use CGI; or will it run for them as well?

Thanks so much!!! You are a life saver!!!!!!!!!

    CGI is for parsing the environment passed to a web application. It handles parsing of variables returning from forms and other information passed to the application from the web server. It can also be used to assist in HTTP header and HTML generation. If your application is not being run by a web server in response to a browser request, you don't need to use CGI.
