Hi,
I do not know if this is a Perl or html question. Please help.
My Perl script runs at Server Site. When the script gets called, it outputs (prints) a progress html page displayed at Client site. When the program ends, it generates a new html page. This new html page should replace that progress page. However, instead of replacing the ProgressPage, the new html page is appended to ProgressPage. I use Perl here doc to print html pages. Below is the sample code.

First, print Progress Page. 

Print <<ProgressPage;
<html>
   <head>
…..
    </head>
   <body>
…..
  </body>
</html>
ProgressPage

Then, print the new HTML page. I want the new HTML page (NewPage) replaces ProgressPage. But, instead of replacing it, NewPage appends to ProgressPage. Can someone tell me how to replace ProgressPage with NewPage? 

print <<NewPage;
<html>
   <head>
   ……
   </head>
   <body>
    ……
   </body>
</html>
NewPage
