You can't make this change in anlgform.pl - it's encoded into analog under the 'CGI' behavior. In fact, all anlgform.pl does is put a protective wrapper around Analog (as well as the form parsing) for CGI use. Also, to clarify Aengus's statement, I don't believe that adding a Content-type header output in anlgform.pl will help as Analog will still output it's own and I'm pretty certain that if more than one of the same header is read, browsers generally take the last one. You'll have to hack to source code to change this, or get into the web server and override it. I can't recall for certain, but IIS may have some ability to override headers from CGI's. -- Jeremy Wadsack Seven Simple Machines +------------------------------------------------------------------------ | TO UNSUBSCRIBE from this list: | http://lists.meer.net/mailman/listinfo/analog-help | | Analog Documentation: http://analog.cx/docs/Readme.html | List archives: http://www.analog.cx/docs/mailing.html#listarchives | Usenet version: news://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.web.analog.general +------------------------------------------------------------------------
