You have a misplaced body tag which is nonsensical in the start_html context
Try this program (note that it doesnt send xhtml). (Tested on solaris with perl5.0503) Script: #!/usr/bin/perl use CGI; use strict; my $p = new CGI; print $p->header; print $p->start_html(-title=>'Welcome to 0.0.0.0!', -author=>'ronan@hackmare.com', -base=>{href => 'http://0.0.0.0/cgi-bin/dir/'}, -meta=>{'keywords'=>'pharoah secret mummy', 'copyright'=>'Hackmarish Things Happening'}, -style=>{'src'=>'/styles/style1.css'}, -dtd=>1, -BGCOLOR=>'blue', -vlink => 'black'); print $p->p('Is this what you want?'); print $p->end_html; Returns: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML//EN"> <HTML><HEAD><TITLE>Welcome to 0.0.0.0!</TITLE> <LINK REV=MADE HREF="mailto:ronan%40hackmare.com"> <BASE HREF="http://localhost/perlmonk.pl"> <META NAME="keywords" CONTENT="pharoah secret mummy"> <META NAME="copyright" CONTENT="Hackmarish Things Happening"> <LINK REL="stylesheet" HREF="/styles/style1.css"> </HEAD><BODY BGCOLOR="blue" VLINK="black"><P>Is this what you want?</P></BODY></HTML> This code was adapted from the CGI.pm html POD --hackmare
