I agree, Cody. Why do people submit solutions that require others to load the submitters HUGE (favorite) Library of overcoded functions when there is such simple solutions?

If the question asked for how to use HTTP to redirect, I'd probably think to give the `print "Location..."` answer but when asked for cgi, even in lowercase, we do tend to think of CGI.pm. Plus, though the `print "Loc..."` works, it is short on headers. It's fine to do it yourself but doing it right is usually easier through an interface. Even one that is less than ideal. `~>perl -MCGI -le 'print CGI::redirect("http://perlmonks.org")' Status: 302 Found Location: http://perlmonks.org` [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]

Because perlmonks isn't HTTP monks; because you didn't want to learn HTTP; because HUGE (favorite) Library of overcoded functions keeps you from having to learn HTTP.	[reply]
