UntitledI have a simple cgi script created on Perl Builder that fails on a
new host with "The page cannot be displayed".  This same script ran ok on
another Unix host (don't know the server type).  I ran it through a perl
validator on a different unix-apache host and there were no errors.  I also
use Perl Builder for many cgi scripts on another site with an apache server.

The host in question says my cgi script will not run because my editor puts
line-feeds which apache servers don't like.  They demonstrated this to me by
sending me a jpg of the cgi file (I don't know how) which shows squares
where the line feeds are.  I have emailed Perl Builder and have not received
a reply in 2 days.

Do any of you have any experience with this problem?  Advice?
