I don't know if I'm overlooking something. And I am a newbie at perl.
But I cannot get it to work as John suggests. I get a window pop up asking
if I wish to save the file or run it from its current location. Either way
it gives me just the first line of HTML without completing the script.
It does work, however, with the USERID/PASS within the script.
