The `redirect` method simply returns the text of the redirect header, you still have to print it! `print $q->redirect("train1.htm");` [download] Also be sure that no other headers (Content-type, etc) are printed before this line. blokhead	[reply] [d/l]

Guh... I remember making that very mistake just a month ago. So aggravating, and so embarassing when I realized that that was the problem...	[reply]
