Is this to create dynamic web pages using CGI? Or are you trying to run the
perl script to create a static html file from the text file?

Subject: skrptX.pl inp.txt--->reportX.shtml
Greetings Perl Gurus!
Problem: Converting text to html using a perl script. I have an
operational perl script that I run on the command line like so:
> skrptX.pl
In the same CWD I have an input file called "inp.txt". Lets say it is
merely a one column list of names. The script I have written, presents
this to the screen
nicely. The code looks like the following:
#!/devl/perl/bin/perl -w
$filename1 = "inp.txt\n";
chomp $filename1;
open($filename1, "< $filename1") || die "Cannot Open Container
File:$!\n";
@lines1 = <$filename1>;
print "\n$filename1 TC names:\n";
$last = $#lines1 + 1;
foreach (@lines1) {
print $_;
}
print "The # of TCs is: $last\n\n";
close($filename1);
Question: Modifying my script, how do I direct this inp.txt to an HTML
file? I need to be able to direct this to a web server file location.
Do in need to "use
Getopts"? I know the HTML tags that can make my browser display this
the way I want it. But how do I make the script do the work? I am
unsure as tohow to deal with STDOUT!
Thanks TONS for your insight!
Tom
