Perl-Print Header With CGI

Print header with CGI

The header prints out Content-type: text/html\n\n . You can do the same thing with sessions above, which also sets a cookie.

#!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;
use CGI;

$cgi = CGI->new();

print $cgi->header();

print $cgi->header(); actually sets a cookie, prints the date, and the Content-type: text/html\n\n portion of the headers.

You can set that cookie manually with,

$cookie = new CGI::Cookie(-name=>'CGISESSID', -value=>$session->id);
print $cgi->header(-cookie=>$cookie);

Please prepend comments below including a date
