in thread Simple Perl print() output redirect to html/webpage.

This question really isn't in Perl-land any more, but a CGI question. This CGI script should do it:

#!/bin/sh echo "Content-Type: text/plain" echo ssh myusername@server1 ./script.pl arg

I'm not sure why your php solution did not work. Maybe you wanted the passthru function?

    Beware, though. If you want to embed the script's output in HTML (instead of plaintext as I did there), you need to make sure that it doesn't contain any of the following characters: <>& (and maybe '"). Instead, escape them properly. For that, the pass-through function php supplies doesn't work.
