Thanks, experts for helping me understand things a little better. I now see the \n and \t etc won't work with a browser; you must use html tags. Also, putting in the path to the perl.exe allows the DOS window to work; using both the tags and \n etc will allow to debug in either environment. The book I was reading said to use -wT at the end of the #! line; but the DOS window gave me a message saying 'too late for "-T" option'. I'll solve this one later, probably when I get in trouble without -T. Now, if I can get some confidence in what's going on, it's on to CGI scripts. Thanks to everyone. :o cherie
