Hi Anon. This code will/does work

#!/usr/local/bin/perl 
use strict;
use CGI::Carp qw(fatalsToBrowser);

# this is the required header
print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";
# this will go to the browser
print "<h1>Show me 'Hello World!' the browser window!</h1>"


my $file = "new_guestbook.html";

open(F,"+< $file") or die "Could not open $file: $!";
my @file = <F>;
s/date/localtime/eg for @file;
seek F,0,0   or die "Could not seek in $file: $!";
truncate F,0 or die "Could not truncate $file: $!";
print F @file;  # this rewrites file
close F;

# this goes to browser, you see nothing if @file is empty
print @file

Run the code above. You will see at least the message in the browser window. If you do not see your file then specify an accurate full path to that file and make sure it is not empty (if you want to see something).
