Printing HTML in Conditional

[pollock77]

   if($group eq admin) {
      print <<ENDHTML;
         <img src="main.png">
      ENDHTML
   }

I'm getting a 500 error, can I not do this?

Yes, this is doable, but...

don't indent the print <<ENDHTML; and ENDHTML lines AND put a blank line AFTER ENDHTML, like this:

if($group eq admin) {
print <<ENDHTML;
<img src="main.png">
ENDHTML
           <-- blank line here
}

There's always a better way. The fun is trying to find it!

Spotted one other thing...

Put quotes around "admin" - if it's a literal.

if($group eq "admin") {
print <<ENDHTML;
<img src="main.png">
ENDHTML
          
}

There's always a better way.  The fun is trying to find it!
