Please help. How do I write in Perl to show that either a selection is chosen and then perform some action. If something is done with the text box, then I can refer to it by $input {'name'}, to refer to the radio button, it's $input {'info'}, how to refer to the specific radio button of choice a) lookup or b) add to database? I just posted but forgot to type in the subject, so I could not get back to it.

This is the html form:

<form METHOD=&quot;POST&quot; ACTION=&quot;/cgi-bin/somename.pl&quot;>
Name: <INPUT TYPE=&quot;text&quot; SIZE=25 NAME=&quot;name&quot; MAXLENGTH=45>

Look up: <INPUT TYPE=&quot;radio&quot; NAME=&quot;info&quot; VALUE=&quot;lookup&quot; CHECKED>

Add to database: <INPUT TYPE=&quot;radio&quot; NAME=&quot;info&quot; VALUE=&quot;addb&quot;>

 
I was able to get into the previous post by clicking on the &quot;news&quot; link. Thanks, Tracy, for your response.
