Thanks George, I thought that was something I had in earlier that I had accidentally deleted...I took your advice though and stuck that html header in there after the shebang and just before I printed out any html. Unfortunately your suggestion didn't fix the problem. The hosting company I'm working with says the cgi-bin is executable, and there are other scripts there that run besides the fact that the permissions seem setup correctly. Please let me know if any of you have any other hints. I'd like to resolve this problem soon if at all possible.
