If you want to search line by line, use this:

while( <CSVFILE> ) {
        if( /searchword/ ) {
                # redirect to url
        }
}

# redirect to OTHER url

This will go through the file, line by line and check for the word. If found
you will need to add code to go to the URL you want. Other wise after it is
done reading the file and the word is not found, it will go to the other
URL. You may also want to check out the beginners-cgi mailing list.

Subject: my first regex i think


if i have a file delimited by commas and i want to make a script that will 
search to see if a word, passed in a query string, is in the file, and 
redirect to one url if i does and one if it doesn't (both urls are also 
passed via query strings)

thanks in advance
