This looks to be a new list! Hi all I hope you don't mind a newbie question that may be OT. Environment: WinNT(sp5) Apache(1.3.20) ActiveState perl Cygwin (perl there too) CGI DBI and MySQL In the MySql database I have 132 images stored, cgi-bin has a perl script (using CGI and DBI) that is the target for an img tag: <img src="fetch.pl?id=15"> and a second perl script that produces an html page with fetched images embedded in it ( via the img tag above and the fetch.pl script) so that when the html page is loaded fetch.pl is called and an image is returned to the page. I did this to make managing the images easier. Worked like a charm. The next step was to animate the images (using javascript). To demonstrate the feasibility I wrote a 'static' page with html and javascript. If I double click on the 'static' page, after a few seconds it loads and the animation takes off. If I use CGI to dynamically write the page with animation the NT box dumps core. I can run the the cgi script that generates a page that is the same as the 'static' page by piping the second script's output to a .html file and double clicking it produces good results, but linking to it or running the second script as a cgi script dumps core. Finally the question! Has anybody else seen this kind of behavior and is there any help to be had with the perl JavaScript package? TIA
