i just started learning perl about 2 days ago and i'm trying to work my
way through a tutorial and it is just impossible to get this to work. the
same thing happened with a similair script, but i dismissed it as a
fluke. even the helpdesk on campus can't figure it out. any ideas?
thanks, nichole
#!/usr/bin/perl
print "Content-type:text/html\n\n";
read(STDIN, $buffer, $ENV{'CONTENT_LENGTH'});
@pairs = split(/&/, $buffer);
foreach $pair (@pairs) {
($name, $value) = split(/=/, $pair);
$value =~ tr/+/ /;
$value =~ s/%([a-fA-F0-9][a-fA-F0-9])/pack("C", hex($1))/eg;
$FORM{$name} = $value;
}
print "<html><head><title>Form Output</title></head><body>";
print "<h2>Results from FORM post</h2>\n";
foreach $key (keys(%FORM)) {
print "$key = $FORM{$key}<br>";
}
print "</body></html>";
