I've switched from Archive::Zip to Archive::Tar, so there's not a writeToFileHandle() method available. Where I'm running into trouble now is getting the file to the browser. CGI::Push isn't what I want to do, and
# Send the .tar file to the browser
print $q->redirect( $filename );

can't do it. I could do
print $q -> start_html,
      $q -> a ( "$filename", $filename ),
      $q -> end_html;

[download]
but if I could avoid the whole new page thing I'd like to. Any ideas?
Cheers!

Don't worry about people stealing your ideas. If your ideas are any good, you'll have to ram them down people's throats.
