How about this deviation on the same theme:
use CGI ':standard';
print CGI->redirect(-location=>"http://www.food.com/bar.html");
Better yet, why not do some configuring in Apache. You could redirect the user to a diffent web page depending on the error message. Here are examples for error 404 and error 500, which are typical ones, that you could add to /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf configuration file or even to a .htaccess file.
ErrorDocument 404 /error_msgs/error_notfound.html
ErrorDocument 500 /error_msgs/error_scriptproblem.html
See this article on Apache Redirection from Unix Review.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
