Hi all,

I am using win32::msgbox in my application. part of the script which displays Message box is as follows 
use Win32;

$txt = "Test";
$button = 0;
$head = "test";

Win32::MsgBox($txt, $button, $head);

this works fine if I invoke it through command prompt. But it doesn't display anything if I invoke it through ASP. The ASP Code is as follows. 
<html>
    <body>

       <form action = "disp.asp" method = post>
           Enter a Value

           <input type = "text" name = "fname" size = 0>

           <input type = "submit" value = "click">

       </from>


    <%
       dim nm

       nm = request.form("fname")

       if nm <> "" then

                  set shell = Createobject("wscript.shell")

            shell.run "cmd.exe /c  C:\\Perl\\bin\\perl " & nm, 1, 1


            set shell = nothing

       end if
    %>

    </body>
</html>
