Hi Alexander, thanks for that. I tried renaming my script to nph-bob.pl :

#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;

use CGI qw(:standard -nph);

$| = 1;

print header;

print qq {
<HTML>
   <HEAD>
      <META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=wind
+ows-1252">
      <TITLE>the Title</TITLE>
   </HEAD>
<BODY>
};

print "Starting ...<br>\n";
for (my $i=0; $i < 10; $i++) {
   print "$i<br>\n";
   sleep 1;
}
print "</BODY></HTML>";
exit;

No effect at all, one cgi-bin env is fine, the other waits for the page to complete before displaying it. I notice from the Apache 2 documentation that it no longer buffers like pre 1.3 did, and that there is no need for nph- prefixed scripts (I think it meant that).

I even tried using "Multipart/mixed" to no avail either. Anyone have any other ideas?

Thanks much,

Caesura

Update : Its actually Server version: Oracle HTTP Server Powered by Apache/1.3.19 (Unix), sorry ;)
