I have a beginner's question.

I'm trying to redirect the program flow to another .htm page using

the

new page using POST method.

You can't do a POST request as an redirect, but you can do a GET to pass the
data
[-
$r = shift ;
$http_headers_out{Location}="acc_admin.htm?msg=" . $r -> Escape ($msg, 2) ;

Which will not work for long query strings (had a lot of fun debugging this one...)

Save the data somewhere and send only data id - or even better, use Apache/Embperl sessions.
