thank you. that fixed it. maybe I should rename myself to CGI<101 so yeah, how do you use the

use CGI::Carp 'fatalsToBrowser';
[download]

do you need the

print "Content-type: text/plain\n\n";
[download]

for that to work as well. Cause I stuck the fatalsToBrowser in their first hoping for a decent error message - but no same error. And of course, when I put the header in their, it works, so no error at all.
