I have removed that line and now I am printing nothing before the "header": use CGI qw/:standard/; use CGI::Cookie; if ($ENV{'REQUEST_METHOD'} eq "POST") { read(STDIN, $request,$ENV{'CONTENT_LENGTH'}); } @parameters = split(/&/,$request); foreach $p (@parameters){ $p =~ s/\+/ /g; ($para,$value) = split(/=/,$p); $para =~ s/%([0-9A-F][0-9A-F])/pack("c",hex($1))/ge; $value =~ s/%([0-9A-F][0-9A-F])/pack("c",hex($1))/ge; $PAIRS{$para} = $value; } if($PAIRS{"login_id"} eq("admin") && $PAIRS{"login_password"} eq("go") +){ $login_cookie = new CGI::Cookie(-name=>'loginID',-value=>'a +dmin'); $password_cookie = new CGI::Cookie(-name=>'loginPassword',-valu +e=>'go'); print header(-cookie=>[$login_cookie,$password_cookie]); print "<script type='text/javascript'> window.location = 'work_with_cookies.pl'; </script>"; } else{ print "<script type='text/javascript'> <!-- window.location = 'admin_login.html'; //--> </script>"; } [download] Still it does not work. The "Set cookie" lines are displaying and the page is not being redirected as well. If I remove the "print" operator from the "header" statement then the page gets redirected but nothing appears thereon. I mean the cookies are not retrieved thereon.	[reply] [d/l]

If you're seeing the headers when you print them, then something is getting printed ahead of them. If your script isn't doing it, it's possible that your web server is sending something ahead of what your CGI script prints. Try fetching the page with a utility like wget, so you can see exactly what's being output. Another option is to talk directly to the HTTP server with telnet, entering a GET command and the Host header like below, followed by a blank line. That'll let you see exactly what your browser sees (assuming your server doesn't do any funny browser-header-specific stuff), with all headers first and then the text of the page. `$ telnet my.server.com 80 Trying.... Connected to.... Escape character is '^]'. GET /cgi-bin/myscript.cgi HTTP/1.1 Host: my.server.com # output will come here` [download]	[reply] [d/l]

@parameters = split(/&/,$request); CGI, which you're already using CGI, does that for you, and does it correctly, so you should actually use it :) Please don't copy/paste that `read(STDIN, $request,$ENV{'CONTENT_LENGTH'});` anymore Read use CGI or die;, especially Ovids CGI Course, CGI Programming 101. Read CGI Help Guide and Troubleshooting Perl CGI scripts Read this if you want to cut your development time in half! While you're already doing all this reading, might as well read the CGI documentation and the examples, those that come with CGI, and some others, like Re: Help!!
