Dear Monks,

These problema are not pertaining to Perl but CGI. I am using a Fedora Core3 OS and Apache as webserver. Now after taking input from user, my script generates two things

(A) Some texts (B) A graph (using GD) in jpg format.

For (A) I am saving in /tmp and able to send directly to user from there.

Prob is with (B).. 1 If I save it in /tmp then my server is not able to find it even I give the path print "<img src=\"/tmp/upload/$tag.jpg\">"; or even if I use print "<img src=\"http://127.0.0.1/../../../tmp/upload/$tag.jpg\">"; It is not able to locate and send the jpg img. 2 Now it is sending from src=\"http://127.0.0.1/image/$tag.jpg\">"; means if jpg is in /var/www/html/image it is happily working but then the problem is my CGI is not able to write the graph in /var/www/html/image location.

One more doubt is about HTML headers in the scripts. So far I am only providing

print "Content-type:text/html\n\n";

Please help me sorting out these issues. Thank you for reading this much..
