It works fine in firefox, chrome, and even the browser that comes with Windows 10 (edge?). In Safari and konquerer, the CGI runs fine but the browsers won't render the HTML it prints. Instead, these two browsers print the output of my script as if it were text. If I run cgi.test(), they render the HTML correctly. If I purposely mung the python script ( I have cgitb enabled), the errors render correctly. The correctly rendered HTML and the HTML rendered as text both appear to lack headers as shown by view source in all browsers. If I put my cgi-bin output into a file named "foo.html", it renders correctly in all browsers ( I presume they are deducing that it is HTML by the file extension). If I put a "Content-Type: text/html" line into my cgi-bin output, then firefox and others offer to download the output of my script rather than displaying it ( it has no effect on the behavior of Safari). <br><br>The web is silent on this matter.

Every time you stop a school, you will have to build a jail. What you
gain at one end you lose at the other. It's like feeding a dog on his
own tail. It won't fatten the dog.
