Hi all,
One day I am going to stop asking these fairly dumb questions, and start
answering them with a wise and profound look on my face, but in the
meantime...
I know this one has to be pretty simple, but I can't work out how to do it,
and I haven't been able to find anyone else doing it.
I am receiving a lot of values from a form. I want to loop through them and
set new variables, with the same name, to the same value. EG: I want the
param value phone to be set to $phone.
I know I could do this with hardcoding by my $phone =
$query->param('phone'), but this seems to me to be a bit of a waste of
typing when I already have a foreach loop happening. (I know, I know,
laziness is bad). This is my foreach loop:
$query = new CGI;
@values = $query->param;
foreach $item (@values) {
print $item ."=". $query->param($item)."<br>";
$msg .= $item ."=" . $query->param($item) . "\n";
}
I've tried \$.$item = and I've tried "$".$item = and I've tried eval($item)
=
I'm sure there must be an easy way to do it. As I said, I know I don't HAVE
to do it, and I could just use $query->param('whatever') whenever I need it,
but it's annoying me now, and I want to know.
Sorry if it's too stupid a question, and you all go "Tchah, moron!" at me
(please feel free to, as long as you also let me know exactly WHY I'm a
moron, 'cause as I said, it's annoying me).
Cheers
di
