Re: [MacPerl] Help Request

"Document contains no data." usually means the browser has timed out
waiting for a response from the CGI/server. Perhaps your search for the
course ID is taking longer than the browser is willing to wait. The
solution in this case is to flush output immediately. Near the top of
your script insert the line:

   $| = 1;   # flush output

This will flush the "Content-type:" line and thus make the browser
happy. $| is documented under the Predefined Variables section of
MacPerl's Help files.
