How do i get EOF to work?

dswimboy has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

i have the following script:

     #!/usr/local/bin/perl
     #

     print <<END;

     Content-Type: text/html\n\n
     <html>
     <body bgcolor="#000000" text="#ffffff">
     <h2>Results</h2>

     END
[download]

and i come up with the follwoing error:

     Can't find string terminator "END" anywhere before EOF at ./eof.p
+l line 4.
