The same thing happens with NetPresenz and I take it to just be a Mac 
thing since it never occurs under Solaris with Netscape or Apache or 
under mkLinux with Apache. I got frustrated to the point that I no 
longer even bother to try to get a cgi to work on a Mac before 
sending it over to unix, but one possibility is that the MacPerl cgi 
applet would be more reliable if you raise its memory allocation from 
the default (200k?) to a much higher level. I never tried this, but 
it couldn't hurt.
