Do you explicitly send an apropriate header? Though, .. This really doesn't matter much when the unparsed file is send back to the client. Weird .. Can you give us some (preferrably all) insight in the httpd.conf sections referring to any perl parsing? (basically any line referring to perl, and it's enclosing tags. Silly thing maybe, but have you checked the file permissions on the file? -- Report problems: http://perl.apache.org/bugs/ Mail list info: http://perl.apache.org/maillist/modperl.html List etiquette: http://perl.apache.org/maillist/email-etiquette.html
