I am using a simple CGI.pl script to display an image. Using the script, The images do not display however if I take the generated html and save it as an html file it works perfectly. my perl code is

print $q->header, # create the HTTP header $q->start_html('hello world'), # start the HTML $q->img({-src => 'wp-content/uploads/Untitled-1.jpg', -alt => 'Powered by Perl'}), $q->h1('hello world'); # level 1 header

The generated HTML is below.

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" lang="en-US" xml:lang="en-U +S"> <head> <title>hello world</title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1 +" /> </head> <body> <img src="wp-content/uploads/Untitled-1.jpg" alt="Powered by Perl" /> <h1> hello world </h1>

I have been pounding the table on this one for a few day's now. I have tried moving the image to other locations but to no avail.
