Hi monks, I'm diving into perl cgi and I can't figure out why my script doesn't display images, rather broken links when executed. The script is: 
#!/usr/bin/perl -w

$imagePath = "http://my.domain/images/header_glow.jpg";

print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";
print <<ENDHTML;
<html>
<head>
<title>A Page</title>
</head>
<body background=$imagePath>
<h3>HELLO</H3>
<img src=$imagePath>
</body>
</html>

ENDHTML

I tried using different paths to my image, absolute, relative, but none show. However, if I right click on the broken image and say view image, it takes me right to it. That's what frustrates me more. Thanks, Joe

I have since solved my problem. My domain provider, mydomain.com, uses one big frame to redirect people. So you get a frame on their server that that has a frame source to my actual computer, http://pcp04397155pcs.nrockv01.md.comcast.net. So therefore, anything with my domain in it is going to show up as a frame with what I actually needed, not the image itself.

Thanks to all your monks for your advice!
