CGI.pm doesn't support http-equiv meta-tags, according to the documentation. What about something as simple as: print <<_META_TAGS_; <META http-equiv="Cache-Control" content="no-cache, must-revalidate"> <META http-equiv="Pragma: no-cache"> _META_TAGS_ IMNSHO, CGI.pm shines when you're getting form input, printing forms or tables dynamically, or messing with cookies. With something as straight-forward as printing out meta-tags and headers, though, I personally feel it's drastic overkill.
