hello Rob, to answer you question:
What do you mean by 'run' HTML pages? Are you writing server-side CGI code?
YES - I am actualy wanting to create a hit counter that works when people visit a site from an advertising banner - so the banner will run a perlscript and depending on those results will either present index1.htm or index2.htm to a user. Now, I have created a perl script that creates an index page on the fly, BUT that means that the adress to the site looks like:
http://www.somesite.come/perl/cgi/index.pl
Now, if a visitor creates a favourite using this link then every visit is going to register as a hit from the advertising banner. What I want to do is increment the count and then present http://www.somesite.com/
I know using .asp (I know I know) I can use Response.Redirect "http:/www.somesite.com" - Is there a PERL equivilent ??? (Please say yes - I love perl - it rocks :D)
Thanks for all your help
Anadi

Hi Anadi.
Almost certainly yes.
What do you mean by 'run' HTML pages? Are you writing server-side CGI code?
