I was getting "Internal Server Error" pages:

Internal Server Error
The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was u
+nable to complete your request.

As soon as I changed for $i (@pages) to for my $i (@pages), the script worked.

Thanks again,

Of course: Perl threw you an error saying --as per `use strict`-- Global symbol "$i" requires explicit package name at ... and that unexpected error message played havoc with the headers of your HTML-page.

`use CGI::Carp qw/fatalsToBrowser/;` [download] in future while developing your CGI scripts :) It will protect you from many mysterious problems ;) `s;;Just-me-not-h-Ni-m-P-Ni-lm-I-ar-O-Ni;;tr?IerONim-?HAcker ?d;print`	[reply] [d/l] [select]

But only use it on the development server and not on the production site as you never know what data might be exposed by an unexpected error. It would not be too good for the world to see your passwords and logins on the Internet! CountZero "If you have four groups working on a compiler, you'll get a 4-pass compiler." - Conway's Law	[reply]
