Title: Message
I'm new to Perl programming.  I'm trying to launch a process from within a CGI script and then continue running the script to complete the web page.  Here is what I'm trying to run.
 
$status=system("/usr/bin/program -x -x -x &");
 
Whenever this is executed, the script goes into a DEFUNCT mode until the child program is either completed, or killed.  I'd like to have the script just start the process in background mode and return to the script.
 
Any assistance is greatly appreciated!
