perl content-type: text/plain	user 4574, 051127 04:45
quick question, i have the print("Content-type: text/plain \n\n");   but a browser alert pops up asking if i should download the file. i want the text to be displayed on the browser. is that a webserver thing or a web browser thing?

Careful, I believe the correct headername is actually Content-Type (note the capital T).

user 4574: remove the space after "text/plain" and before "\n\n" milov: the headers are case-insensitive: http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec4.html#sec4.2 I agree that capitalizing looks better, though.

Case-insensitive? Wow, had no idea. I vaguely remember reading lots of advice to use Content-Type instead of Content-type in case of problems. Anyway, I'll be using CoNtEnT-TyPe from now on... :)
