Not exactly sure what you're trying to do...Try something like this.
#!/usr/bin/perl
print "Content-type: text/html", "\n\n";
print "<HTML>\n<HEAD>\n";
print "<title>test page</title>\n";
print "</head>\n";
print "<body>\n";
open TEXT, "../cards/dougs.txt";
while (<TEXT>) {
print "$_<BR>";
}
close TEXT;
print "</body>\n";
print "</html>\n";
