Hi,

I'm a newbie to Gimp. I'm trying to use perl scripts to run gimp. The scripts run when i execute it form the command line but when i run it from a browser it doesn't work. the error_log shows:
"[Fri Nov 08 12:21:57 2002] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] protocol error (1) at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi/Gimp/Net.pm line 66."

I have searched the newsgroups and found that this problem is quite common but no one has provided a solution. Does any one have any ideas as to how i can solve this problem?

I have included my script in this mail if it helps.
I look forward to your assistence.

Thanks
Hakeem

#tell browser what output format to expect
print "Content-type:text/html\n\n";
