Hi,
You might like to try the following :
########################################################
#!/usr/bin/perl
##############
print "Content-type: text/html\n\n"; ####### this must be first and in
quotes .
print <<END_of_Multiline_Text;
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>Hello World</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<H1>Greetings, Terrans!</H1>
</BODY>
</HTML>

 END_of_Multiline_Text

#######################################################
