CSS causing Premature end of script header error

I am writing a CGI PHP script to handle a simple form. However, I am also using a CSS for the html-based output. I am getting the error:

Code: Select all

Premature end of script headers: SA.css, referer: http://192.168.1.15/cgi-bin/form.php
because of the line:

Code: Select all

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="SA.css">
form.php is the script that is getting the error.

Thanks in advanced for any help.

Tags that do not have a corresponding end must include a slash at the end.

Code: Select all

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="SA.css" />
Try that.

Thanks but no go. I'm using HTML not XHTML, so I don't need to close ( I tried it anyway, but with no luck).

Your server tries to run the css file like it was a cgi script. Move it out of the /cgi-bin/ folder, and make sure it's not executable (chmod a-x SA.css)
