You'll want to fix that so its not trying to parse the script. Rename the public version .perl or something, so we can fetch a copy and take a look at what you've done. Right now, its trying to parse the .pl script and failing not-so-gracefully ;) No error checking?

Now I check for the existence of the output as my one error check, and serve up a 500 Plucker Server Error page if it fails.

I also found the cause of IE thinking the output was text and not offering to save it. It turns out that IE 6 for Windows assumes the content is text if no content-length is given, ignoring the content-type. Safari and Firefox for OS X both do this, too. Firefox for Windows works fine.

By the way, I may have found a bug somewhere in the spider. I was getting some non-fatal "<img>" error messages when plucking a page, and the error messages were going to stdout. So when I was using the spider as a filter, I was getting a bad pdb output.
