Regarding Content-type headers

[praba kar]

Dear All,

I have doubt regarding headers in cgi
programming. If I gives "Content-Type:text/plain" then
I try to print html contents. Is right or wrong after
giving content-type: text/plain?

regards
Prabahar

It's not wrong, but you won't get the results you want. If you want to
display HTML your should send the content-type: text/html.
