Thank you for the advice.
This is the part where I have the major stump. How would I get the refresh
tag to call the script, and have the script remember the query? I mean, once I
refresh a page, doesnt it -re-call- the script, thus shooting off another query
against the db.
I suppose if I fork()'d the sql sp off, I could pass the PID to the script, and
the script could see if the PID is done. But then I have the Q of getting the
result set back and such. Hrm..
Which is why I thought chained handlers would work...
package Intranet::header_push;
use strict;
use Apache::Constants 'OK';
sub handler {
my $r=shift;
for my $subs (\&header, \&body, \&footer) {
$r->push_handlers(PerlHandler => $subs);
}
OK;
}
sub header {
my $r = shift;
$r->content_type('text/plain');
$r->send_http_header;
$r->print("header text..\n");
OK;
}
sub body {
my $r = shift;
$r->print("body text..\n");
OK;
}
sub footer {
my $r = shift;
$r->print("footer text..\n");
OK;
}
1;

course parrot. :)
