No because I don't want to actualy change the print statment. I want somehow catch the output of print statments that are in HTML that i'm evaling (sort of). Heres and exmaple..

   <html>
   <body>
   <% #perl code here
      setCookie(hello=>"already said");
      print "Hello";
   %>
   </body>
   </html>

Okay see how thats embeded in there? thats how it already is (except i'm makeing the scripter fudge it by doing "$OUT .=" in place of "print".) This lets me run all the code (to catch changes to cookies and headers, redirects, etc threwout the code) and have all the web page in a variable. Then I print the header and then print the variable. So i want the scripter to be able to use a regular print statment but i want the engine to catch the output of the print and append it to a variable to hold of printing.

Sorry for the confusion and thanks for the reply!
