Now what I have is this (let's call the script "test.pl") :
__BEGIN__
use strict;
use Data::Dumper;
use CGI::Carp qw( fatalsToBrowser );
use Acme::Spork;
my $uemail = "[EMAIL PROTECTED]";
my $ct = "sugar";
my $nu = 10;
# Run the job at the background
spork(
sub {
my ( $ue, $con_type, $nb_un ) = @_;
system qq("perl compute_price.pl -email $ue -type $con_type -unit
$nb_un");
},$uemail, $ct, $nu
)
or die qq {Could not fork for spork: $!};
__END__
But why it still doesn't do the job?
If you don't mind you can try it.
The accompanying simple script for "compute_price.pl" can be found here:

Truly hope to hear from you again.
