Okay, Kevin,
I've obtained CGI.pm (v3.25). I'm going to go see what I can figure out, but I may be back with more questions... I'm sure I'll thank you for the kick in the butt later :)

Greetings,
I have a CGI script (in rudimentary Perl) that takes login name and password data, compares it to a database, and if it matches, prints one page, if no match, redirects back to the login page with an error message. This all works fine.
My problem is that if one enters the location...
I'll have to wait until later in the day to try these out, TorontoJim, but I'm excited that the topic is back on the table. Thank you, PaulTEG and KevinADC, for getting it back out there. I'll let you know what works.
So glad to have folks like you out there to call on for assistance!

I use the following script to calculate the total amount due based on the amount ("invoice") entered in the form ("pay"). All works as needed, except that I need to be able to limit the results to two decimal places, preferably rounded as needed. What am I missing?
Thank you,
Meghan

Kevin,
Thank you for your quick response. I should have been more specific in my original post: While I'm able to access the .TXT file to populate my table, I am unable to successfully link to it. The .TXT file is a dynamic file, updated with form data via another CGI script (successfully)...
I have a CGI script that compiles .TXT database info into a table. I'd like to add a link to the page that forces the user to save the .TXT file when they select the link. I'm sure I'm missing something terribly obvious, but forest and trees and all, I'm just not seeing it. Why can't I...
Yes, that was it. I told you it was something stupid. That's what you get for trying to apply one program's logic to another.
Thanks, Alan, I appreciate your shared wisdom.

I'm sure I'm missing something completely obvious, BUT...
When I save an image for the web from Illustrator, I'm able to set the mat color and the image blends perfectly. When I export an image from CorelDraw v.12, I always get a border approximately 1px around the image, making it impossible...
Duncan: Thank you. I ended up taking out the alert and close in the validation script I was using that Mark mentioned above and adding a redirect to the end of my CGI script that includes the content from the alert as well as a button to close the screen. Not quite as streamlined as I was...
Mark: Fabulous! I removed the window.close(), and all is right with the world again. Now, back to my last post: Is there a way to close the window from within my CGI script? I could do a redirect, but it seems so much cleaner to just close it.
Thanks again!!!
Meghan
Mark: The window.close() function was intentional. The form pops in a new window, and it seemed most logical to close it upon completion. Is there a better way to close the window from within the CGI script (You'll have to forgive my piecemeal knowledge; so far, I only know what little I've...
Kevin: Thank you for your response... I may call on you later for additional information on your side note (after I've made a decent attempt to learn more about your references on my own).
Now, the plot thickens:
I've determined that the script is now working as it ought to be when only the...
I use a CGI script to process quote requests submitted from my website at EMPE Media. When I've made test submissions, they've gone through 9/10 times. I had a couple of other people submit requests that I know haven't come through. What am I missing? Why does it work sometimes and not...
KevinADC
You're great! Thank you. I couldn't get it to work quite the way you posted, but you got me on the right path. I took your code and used it in the original form handler that saves the form data to the database. Take out the hard returns there and replace them with "--" just to save...
I have a website with a guest book entry form handled by a CGI program that saves the form data to a .txt database ($in{'name'}|$in{'email'}|$in{'comments'}\n), then redirects the user to a .cgi page that displays the guest book.
The problem is when there are hard returns in the comments...
Shmoes: I was able to connect to the other two machines on the network. All three machines have IPs of 192.168.0.3, 4, or 5. I was able to ping the router, but not the modem.
linney: Thanks for the link. I was actually using some of the suggestions in this thread when my poltergeist took...
I have three machines networked through a netgear wireless router. We were on asdl internet, just switched to cable. My machine running win xp pro is connected to the router with a cat-5 cable and can find and use the network but can't connect to the internet. The other two machines are fully...
