alright.. I seemed to have fixed the problem by printing out some blank spaces directly after the header. Netscape is seems doesn't like it if nothing is printed, IE doesn't care.
Also, sorry for the badly formatted question (i.e. no whitespace). It was my first post, and I wasnt aware i needed to enter my own html for formatting. oops.
Thanks everyone for your suggestions though!

Netscape reported that the document contained no data because.... it contained no data. You didn't print any data, you simply printed a header. Netscape is handling the result from your CGI correctly; Explorer tends to make all kinds of wild assumptions and forgives a lot of errors in HTML.
