Hello again, I know I've asked this question before, but I'm still unclear with the results.

I have the following code that redirects a person to another html page if a certain word is seen, using Apache as my webserver. 

#!/perl/bin/perl.exe -wT

use CGI;
$q = new CGI;
$name = $q->param('name');
$comment = $q->param('comment');

if ($name =~ /^Auto$/i){
    print $q->redirect("http://somewhere.com/cgi-bin/Auto.cgi");
}

else{
print $q->header("text/html");
}

My objective is to redirect them without having the URL in the browser change.

I know this is possible, but I'm uncertain as to how the code should look. I have tried using internal redirects (not providing an absolute path) but the URL still changes to reflect the new page.

Any ideas?
