bizarre Mozilla/Konqueror behavior

That was the clue I needed to fix the script. It it
offers to save it as a .txt, it must think the text is
a plain text file. Using file info in Mozilla I
discovered the Type: was set to type/text. Turns out
the CGI script was never sending a proper Content-type
header. I added a CGI call to do that, and my problem
was solved.

Thanks much for your observations. This is for a
project where the customer is extremely irate and
impatient.
