Thanks for the tip. Actually I did find a solution using javascript which eliminates the possibility from getting to the stage where this routine was necessary. Jett

Hi guys, A short question: Is it possible to go one page backwards with a perl command from within a perl script, like “window.history.go(-1)” with javascript? Jett

Think it is solved. #sort prop open (data, &quot;<$profile&quot;) or &error(&quot;Unable to open the data file&quot;); @data=<data>; close(data); @data = sort {$a <=> $b} @data; open (wdata, &quot;>$profile&quot;) or &error(&quot;Unable to write to the data file&quot;); print wdata @data...

I have a sorting question. Picture a datafile with about ten fields seperated by ‘:’. The first field is unique and nummeric. As records are printed on the bottom of the datafile after a modification I would like to do a sort on the first field of the datafile to move the modified record to the...

I'm only a beginner and not sure if this is what you want but it might work: require 'newcgi.cgi'; Jett,

Maybe getting a little closer. As said in the documentation of Dreamweaver ENCTYPE=&quot;multipart/form-data&quot; should be added to the form tag when using file fileds which I did and works fine with CGI.pm. After removing this part from the form tag $fileID gets populated and the file is...

I use 'Post' so I don't think I use the wrong syntax to read the variable (the file variable) or are file field always sent as 'get' (I'm going to try this). I put a print command in the script to print $fileID which remained empty. That's why my guess is that the script can't open the...

Hi, goBoating. Your script for file uploading is working but I run into a problem. I would like to use the script as part of another script I'm working on but this script uses 'standard' CGI and not 'my CGI'. Sorry for the poor explanation, I don't know how the different sorts of Perl are called...

Thanks goBoating! Initially I received a warning for 'Dangerous File' and uploading was cancelled. This happended twice with a *.gif file and a *.txt file. I commented the 'unless' part of the script and after this it did upload the file to the indicated folder. Any idea why both files were...

Hi John, I'm afraid I can't give you an answer why the script isn't working for you. I tried it myself as I have been looking for something to upload files from the browser through CGI aswell. I don't get errors when running the script (although I changed some parts as some how 'use CGI;'...

I needed this! I already started digging in all sorts of scripts to find the solution as it had to do with using 'get' instead ofr 'post' but I didn't yet manage to find a script that used 'get' to see the difference. Thank you so much goBoating. I'm trying to create some script and to my own...

I'm still not finished with this and I think the problem is somewhere else. I made a simple form which is sent using 'get' in order to create the same sort of url: consult.pl?add=show&exp_nr=12 This isn't working either! Can anybody tell me how to use this way of sending variables to a...

Yes it did work Shail, in my first attemp I misstyped it (\&quot;$var&quot;\). Thank you, Jett

Mike, thank you for helping with the increment question. I must have done something wrong as $v=$v+1; does work. It is used to increment a value read from a data file. I didn’t try this yet, maybe the problem is caused somewhere else. Question 1: Underneath is a stripped version of the script...

I tried, but it still gives errors, Jett

Hi, I’m busy with a script that creates an html page with a number of links to the same script, a link looks like this: <a href=&quot;consult_exp.pl?add=show&exp_nr=12&quot;><b>12</b></a> What I don’t understand is that the variables ‘add’ and ‘exp_nr’ are not available in the script. I...

Problem is solved, probably not really elegant but this is what I did: $add='&quot;'; $result .=&quot;<option value=$add$var$add>$var</option>&quot;; Thanks for all the help, Jett

What I'm trying to do is search through a datafile and create some html code when a $ match a field, it does work except from showing the corresponding field which is ouputted as $var. The code looks like this: if ($var eq $input{'office'}) { $result .='<option...

I'm sorry. What's happening is that everything between <> is not printed BUT it is included in the $ (as seen by schecking the source). So it is doing what I wanted to. But there is another problem as parts of the contents is formed by individual $'s and it doesn't show the value of the string...

Thank you goBoating for helping, $string .='It did work but only partially as <these thingies and everything between it> is ignored!'; with the print result: It did work but only partially as is ignored! I tried to put everything between &quot;&quot; like: $string .='&quot;<something here>...
