Sure any number of ways.  They may lock up your CGI though till you
clear it.  What you could do is :

system 'start wperl another-script-with-a-dialog-box.pl';

and use one of these inside methods to do a dialog/msg box inside it :

Win32::MsgBox
Win32::GUI::DialogBox
Tk::DialogBox
etc.

Easier?? Maybe... Especially if what I asked for was not possible  ;o))

I have a number of grandkids that will send a photo or two "whenever"
and I am usually on the pc that has the server. If I get a popup I know
I can dialog with them about the photo... As soon as I can see it. As
matter of reality.. I "could" just as easily as a log file.. Look in the
directory that uploads go to... Etc.etc. 


BUT"Can I get a popup from my PC server's CGI???"

TIA
Chuck

Wouldn't it be easier to send an email or use a log file ?
