The code looks right.  Obviously concatenation works.  I'm unsure as to why
chr("9") is resulting in "+" signs instead of tabs, however.  No ASCII
value for "+" in decimal, hex, or octal even has a 9 -in- it (obviously
octal couldn't).

Anyone have any ideas?

Hmmm...without knowing for sure (not a big user of request output in the
conventional sense here), is it possible that the form is translating the
tabs itself?  I see the print, which implies you're using the form.

What happens if you just open a file with open(), writeline() out the
contents of pl, and close() the file?  I suspect this may hit it on the
head and you'd get tabs in the file.  I'm guessing the form translates it
out of being a tab for whatever reason.
