well, if his point was that printing to STDERR (not STDOUT) caused
$r->send_http_headers to be called prematurely, I guess that would be a
problem...
unfortunately, I can't reproduce the results David reported using 1.23_01
(current cvs)
here was my test script, run under Regustry with PerlSendHeaders On
#!/usr/bin/perl
print STDERR "testing\n";
print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";
print "hi";
no headers, just "hi" in the browser and "testing" in the error_log... of
course, with PerlSendHeaders Off, Netscape gets a download screen (expected)
is this what you meant?
