Dear Robert,
I am working on PERL scripts that generate some simple web pages. I've
created the web page graphics in Microsoft Publisher, and then copied
the HTML into a PERL script. When I use Firefox to display/run the
script everything works as it should. When I use IE I get a blank page.
Perhaps a small hint from me. I think, it is never a good idea to mix
code and output data (i.e. html) in the same file (unless in a
quick&dirty programm). I programmed in the last years some interfaces
for browsers and I used formbuilder [1] and a template system [2]. So it
was possible for me to separate perl code and output data. Shure, the
first steps a little bit harder but if you want change/expand the
programm (Believe me, you will do it. :) ), it is a lot easier, if you
use a system like this. And if you start with a new project, it is very
easy to use cut & paste ;)
The second goal is for me ... I can programm a little bit with perl, but
I'm not a designer. With a template system like this it is possible,
that one person creates html, css, images, ... and an other person write
the perl code. With this way you can reduce the trouble, if you work
with other people at the same project.
Best regards and good luck,
thomas polnik.
