Hi,

I set this to meditations, because I don't believe there is an answer to this problem. OTOH if I really do what I started to think "just accept the behaviour", then I open up a door where madness lies behind.

Given this simple code:

  print <<"HTML";
<TABLE border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0 align=center>
 <TR>
  <TD height=100%>&nbsp;<BR></TD>
 </TR>
 <TR>
  <TD align=center class=copyleft valign=bottom>
   (c) 2003 Blah, $cust{'last change'}: $cfg{lastchange}, $cust{feedba
+ck}:
   <A href="mailto:$cfg{webmaster_email}">$cfg{webmaster_email}</A><BR
+>
   <A href=terms.cgi>$cust{terms2}</A><BR><BR>
  </TD>
 </TR>
</TABLE>
HTML

print <<"HTML";

</BODY>
</HTML>
HTML

Voila! It works.

Doing a simple change during refactoring:

  print <<"HTML";
<TABLE border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0 align=center>
 <TR>
  <TD height=100%>&nbsp;<BR></TD>
 </TR>
 <TR>
  <TD align=center class=copyleft valign=bottom>
   (c) 2003 Blah, $cust{'last change'}: $cfg{lastchange}, $cust{feedba
+ck}:
   <A href="mailto:$cfg{webmaster_email}">$cfg{webmaster_email}</A><BR
+>
   <A href=terms.cgi>$cust{terms2}</A><BR><BR>
  </TD>
 </TR>
</TABLE>

</BODY>
</HTML>
HTML

[download]

E voila! It works not. The page sent to the browser and the browser displays all ok, but the apache 2 (mod_perl) also attaches an error message with the wildest codes like 481, 539 etc. and states that either the server is overloaded or there is an error in the CGI script.

You see me puzzled.
