This is the exact problem I am having. But then, the image being generated is based on a search of a database, so that if I reference an external CGI, I have to pass the results of the search, and this I am having trouble doing.

So, I decided to use a subroutine to generate a file, display the file, then delete the file.

Part of my program does call the remote CGI when a single record is returned and it is easy to pass the variables for a single image to be drawn.

If you go to http://www.belizeexplorer.com right now, click on search, and choose Mayan Sites in the Category box, you will see the ASCII come back. Then if you click on the individual links, you will see the program work when it draws a single record.

I think I will have to go back to creating an image, then deleting them after a period of time.

Thanks for your post.

Tony
