open a new window 1

[bluedragon2]

I have searched throught the forum and saw how to open a new window by using:

<a href=

http://test.pl

target=newwindow

My question is: Can I open a new window using perl in test.pl?

Thanks

Perl has no concept of a "window" at all. When you use Perl in a CGI script (or indeed mod_perl). It's just printing text, and that text gets sent to a browser. The fact that the text in question happens to valid HTML/Javascript/CSS code is irrelevant as far as Perl is concerned. That's up to the browser to parse. So what you need to do is to figure out what HTML/Javascript causes the effect you're looking for, and then have Perl output that code.
