You could use NPH (non-parsed headers), which lets you
send multiple pages on one request. Check this silly
page for an example (delays 10 seconds).
There were some tricks.
The main one was I had to do
use CGI qw(-oldstyle_urls)
to make it work with Netscape 4.x. Basically, here is
the way to do it:
use CGI qw(-oldstyle_urls);
my $q = new CGI;
# ...
if ($q->param('last')) {
last_page($q);
} else {
next_page($q);
}
sub next_page {
# ...
$url = $q->url('-query' => 1);
$last = ($url =~ /\?/) ? '&last=1' : '?last=1';
# Here is the delay, 10 seconds
print $q->header('-Refresh' => "10;URL=$url$last"),
# print the rest of the 1st page here...
}
sub last_page {
# ...
print $q->header(),
# etc...
}
