cgi script error

Hi Folks,

I’m getting the following error from my web server (httpd on linux): “malformed header from script. Bad header=<html>: htmllib.cgi

The script I’m running is a Python script as follows:

#!/usr/bin/python

def openDocument( ):

print """<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC \"-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN\">""";

def openHTML( ):

print "<html>";

def closeHTML( ):

print "</html>";

def openHead( ):

print """<head>\n\t<meta HTTP-EQUIV=\"CONTENT-TYPE\" CONTENT=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\">""";

def closeHead( ):

print "</head>";

def openBody( ):

print "<body>"

def closeBody( ):

print "</body>";

def title(string=""):

print "\t<title>%s</title>" % string;

def p(string="", align="left", fontSize=3):

print "\n%s\n" % (align, fontSize, string);

def br( ):

print " ";

if(__name__ == "__main__"):

#openDocument();

openHTML();

#openHead();

#title("Test Page");

#closeHead();

openBody();

p("this is a test. this is a test. this is a test. this is a test. this is a test. this is a test. this is a test. this is a test. this is a test. this is a test.", "center", 4);

closeBody();

closeHTML();

It gives the same complaint if I’ve got openDocument and/or openHead uncommented. The script is executing otherwise the error wouldn’t show up in the error_log with specific text from the script. Also, I’ve run the script and redirected it’s output to an .html file and the server loads it with no problems.

Any ideas are appreciated.

Thanks,

Ron Griswold
