Passing Session Variable

[johngordon]

I am very new to Perl and CGI. I know how to create a login page and pass the Users variables along using ASP, however I don't know how to do it using PERL.

I've figured out how to install Perl, DBI and get a DB connection.

Now I some help, my project is stalled at the Login page. I have been researching info about the CGI::Session module, but feel I still need some guidance.

I am using Perl and MS Access 2000

Thanks,

John

I don't think CGI::Session's going to allow you to store the session info in Access. You can instead save the session info to a file or to a MySQL database.

If you haven't looked at

http://search.cpan.org/~sherzodr/CGI-Session-3.95/Session.pm

yet, you should. Also follow the links from there to the tutorial and cookbook where you'll find more than enough info to get you going. If you have specific questions you'll be more likely to get some help.
