Re^3: CGI Help

I just tried it out (on the console, as I don't have a web server set up):

$ cat .index
17:floogle.bas:frabnicratz
18:zognarf.cpp:blofulous
1:Kweznerrific:Shabtabulae

$ perl 960849.pl >t.html
$ cat t.html
Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1

<html>
<head>
<title>Index</title>
<body>
<ul>
<li><a href="ipage.cgi?page=17" target="mframe">frabnicratz
</a></li>
<li><a href="ipage.cgi?page=18" target="mframe">blofulous
</a></li>
<li><a href="ipage.cgi?page=1" target="mframe">Shabtabulae
</a></li>
<li><a href="ipage.cgi?page=
" target="mframe"></a></li>
</ul>
</body>
</html>

It looks reasonable, and when I open t.html in a browser, it looks like I would expect to see. Perhaps you've got incorrect permission settings on .index, and the file open is failing? You should always check the results of your file opens and verify that they work.
