The OP never said that it was believed that this was an issue with Perl. As a matter of fact, it was stated clearly and specifically which user agents that the CGI does and does not work with. It appears as though the OP may not be a web server expert, and was looking for insight from others that may have run into this issue before who are also using Perl to write a CGI app. Simphiwe, I can verify that the server responds and the app loads using Firefox 3.5 (on Windows). Do a "tail -f" on your web server error/access log while you try to load the site, and see if there is anything out of the ordinary. When I load the page, it comes up ok, but when I try to navigate away from it (eg, clicking on "Click to search") I get a warning that I'm navigating away from the SSL portion of the site. The failing browser's error messages seem to point to connection-related issues, but these messages are likely just generic. Try taking your browsers that fail to: https://secure.followme2africa.com/ and see what happens. Again, watch the Apache log file(s) as you do this. If you still need help, email me off-list, and I'll do what I can, or I'll point you in a different direction for what you need. Steve ps.
