Alright all, hope your all good. I was wondering if you could help me with this really stupid question.

Whats bothering me is that I have a script to print a html page to a browser(This page contains flash). This script has one argument, the $ENV{"QUERY_STRING"} which in this case would be http://eoinmurphy.netfirms.com/cgi-bin/game.cgi?Tetriswm Now this should open a webpage with the Tetris flash game on it, but it doesn't load the flash file. The rest of the page loads but the flash box stays blank. When I right click on it the box says that the movie hasn't loaded. I've already searched perlmonks and found this but it didn't help at all. All the problems described in those replies are not relevent to this question.

Heres the script's code:
my $game = $ENV{"QUERY_STRING"};
print qq(Content-type: text/html\n
<html>
<head>
<title>$game</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1
+">
</head>

I would be honoured if you would state your opinions on my problem.
All the Best, Eoin...

If everything seems to be going well, you obviously don't know what the hell is going on.
