Re: CGI output to null?

I use a (perl) CGI script to collect form data on our website, and email it to me. When it collects the data, it shows a thankyou.html page to the visitor. No problem.

Now, I want to alter this script so that it doesn't send anything back (it will be accessed from an HTML email), but if I strip out the:

print "Location: /thanks.html", "\n\n";

..line, I get an Internal Server Error.

Is there a way I can satisfy the script's need to reply, but send the information to Null, or whatever? Help?

Not a Perl question (apart from the use of 'print', which I'm sure you can handle).

print "Content-Type: text/plain\n\n"; 

That results in blank page, doesn't it?

I think it's this the OP is after:

    print "Status: 204 No Content\n\n";
