in reply to \n won't work?!

I'm going to look into my crystal ball and predict that you are sending a content-type of text/html. Browsers generally collapse whitespace in HTML.

    I am using the line:
    print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";

    Why do you think the book (the book: CGI and Perl for the WWW, PeachPit Press) would use this line along with examples of using \n for a new line?

      There are three reviews of that book on this site. Perhaps you should take a look at those. You'll see that the book isn't very highly regarded.
