Hello - I may have unsub'd from the list by now, so would you mind
cc'ing this for me if it doesn't get through and if you think it useful?
So, I simply meant that if you are trying to get $|=1 type "instant" output
and your HTML header pulls in other files -- using
<script type="text/pascal" src="another.doc"></script>
or
<link rel='stylesheet' type='text/css' href='outside.css'/>
then you will not get the expected output instantly, but only after the
whole document has loaded.
I guess this is because the document will not be rendered until
the browser (or let's face, the IE6) has received the external files
and the whole BODY.
If you trying sticking a CSS/script link in the $q->html_head call
in the mod_perl Guide example, you should see what I mean.
Took me hours to figure it out....
