I would essentially like it to work exactly like Java does. Thx, Dan -----Original Message----- From: Leon [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, 5 March 2002 4:31 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Perl to work like Java Yes it is possible. The forms will be sent to the script which then process the inputs. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Daniel Falkenberg" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Sunday, March 03, 2002 5:44 PM Subject: Perl to work like Java Hey all, I need a Perl script to be able to have a user fill out an online form. Now this is easy enough but what I want is the user to check a couple of checkboxes and then have the script go and do something like a calculation. Can this be done using perl or do I have to use Java? Also I would rather the page not have to be refreshed each time the user checks a checkbox. Basically the script will work like the following.... 1: User checks some boxes on a page.... 2: Page now does some calculations according to user input.... Any ideas?
