Change

echo "Content-type: text/html\n"

to

echo -en "Content-type: text/html\r\n\r\n"

Jow,
I was having a problem with uhttpd eating the <head>...</head> part of the html doc.  I had my cgi script put "\n\n" after the http header and it seemed to be working (on a previous html doc) until I started using a new html doc.  Switching the "\n\n" to "\r\n\r\n" completely fixed the problem ... thanks, I spent way too long trying to figure this out!
