OK, so here's what I'm trying to do: 1. A link sends you to my script. 2. My script immediately sends that page back to where it came from. 3. My script creates a new window, and continues to do stuff on it.
Make sense?
Err... not to me.
if you want to pop a new window open when a link sends you there (step 1), you do not need CGI, Perl or any other wizardry... just a link that says
<a href="http://where.you.wannna.go.today.com/cgi-bin/mycgi.pl" target="_new">YOUR LINK TEXT</a>
This gives you a new window on a click as you wanted, and if you have a backend process in cgi that needs to do something with it, just give that script's URL in the HREF above.
Makes sense ?
