[MacPerl] [ACGI] MacPerl'Reply

["Steven J. Stratford" <sstrat@globaldialog.com>]

Question:

I'm playing around with Sandra Silcot's ACGI code. Why do you suppose this
command

&MacPerl'Reply("$HEADER_200$STARTHTML$REPLY$ENDHTML");

returns this

Error receiving results from ACGI execution. (-1700)

from WebStar to the browser? Error -1700 is "(Reply Data could not be
coerced to requested type (char)) ". When I change "&MacPerl'Reply" to
"print" and recompile as a plain cgi, the appropriate message is displayed
in the browser, so I'm pretty sure what's in the quotes is just fine.

I'm using MacPerl 5.1.8r4, MacOS 8.1, Webstar 2.1.

TIA.
