in reply to CGI redirect to new window/frame

I don't think the CGI script can influence where a link opens, you have to do that in the HTML in which the link is, and set the target attribute on the link there.

Still browsers are free to ignore that attribute.

    Using html i can open in a new window. That's simple enough. Let me modify the problem. I have a text box and a submit button in the html. I enter the url in the textbox and click submit. The CGI script should open the url given in a new window.

      Then you still have to solve your problem on the HTML or Javascript side, I don't think you can solve it with Perl.
