Rob, No, nothing is wrong. Perl's interpreter must be invoked with the taint switch. When you run the script from the command line with something like this: ./myscript.cgi the operating system should read the shebang line and fire up the interpreter with the switches supplied on the shebang line. However, when you execute the script like this: perl myscript.cgi the interpreter is already running and then is fed the program with the appropriate switches. Either run the program with "./myscript.cgi" type of syntax, or, if you are just compiling for a test, supply the -T switch on the command line: perl -cT myscript.cgi Cheers, Curtis "Ovid" Poe ===== "Ovid" on http://www.perlmonks.org/ Someone asked me how to count to 10 in Perl: push@A,$_ for reverse q.e...q.n.;for(@A){$_=unpack(q|c|,$_);@a=split//; shift@a;shift@a if $a[$[]eq$[;$_=join q||,@a};print $_,$/for reverse @A __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
