spacey has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
Hi all,
I’m sorry if this has been asked before.
I just need to obtain a better understanding of CGI.pm
I have a script that outputs dynamic results information back to the web browser.
What I like to know is:-
How would I redirect the output to a new browser window?
I have tried looking around and I believe this is not as simple as it sounds.
I have viewed the CGI.pm help notes and see that this has a –target option but clearly
stats that it does not work on Internet Explorer.

I have tried looking around and I believe this is not as simple as it sounds.
I have viewed the CGI.pm help notes and see that this has a –target option but clearly
stats that it does not work on Internet Explorer.
What I need to establish is:-
1, Is CGI.pm what I need?
2, Do I need to combined CGI.pm with some sort of JavaScript?
3, Is this type of thing limited to ether Netscape or Explorer and not both?
4, Is there any good resource I could look at for help with this?
I guess the simplest example I could give for what I am trying to achieve is:
#!/usr/bin/perl print "Content-type: text/html\n\n\n"; print <<END; #### FROM HERE TO END IN NEW BROWSER WINDOW <html> <font color=RED> hello World </font> </html> END
