Hi Guys,
Thanks for the hints.
As i was afraid of the code is fine. If I use the script in a html link it works fine, redirect and all. It seems the problem is how I am calling the script within the html page.

I did use the CGI.pm module and it worked well also, thanks for pointing that one out. Alas though, same result. It only works if I use it in a link.

If anyone has any ideas on that one you can point me in the right direction, I don't expect people to post asnswers to html questions in a perl forum.

Again, thanks :)
