map
Hi to All, I' d like to know if it' s possible to print the number of occurences of letter "o" inside a variable string, using perl function map. This is my code: use CGI; $var = "Good morning"; $num = map {"o"} $var; print qq' Perl Page '; print "The number of elements found is: $num"; print qq''; I' ve changed $var in an array but I've obtained no good results.

problems with gd.pm
Hi, I'm trying to compile a script that is using gd.pm. But it seems that this library is not installed in my activestate version (5.6.1.629).

Creating a CGI menu
I want to create a menu/navigational section for a website I plan on building, and I would like to know if there are any easy-to-use modules I could use, or if there's another way. My website will have many levels and I don't fancy copying, pasting and tweaking the HTML to get the menu to look right on every page. I need someway that will make life easier, that will preferably, automatically include new pages.

For raw HTML, you should use SSI, or some kind of templating scheme to insert the menu into the page. I've built sub-components with Text::Template and inserted them into a main page (also using Text::Template), and it worked out very well. You can even have dynamic code in your sub-components. Beyond templating, you can go with a component-based system like Mason, which lets you build up web applications using pre-built components. -- Brett http://www.chapelperilous.net/ Too many people are thinking of security instead of opportunity.

Re: Creating a CGI menu
If you look at O'Reilly's cgi programming with perl book there is a mechanism there which can be modified to do exactly what you want. The following was adapted from it : # initialise subject listings one section per subdirectory under # ../data opendir ( DIR, "../data" ) or die "Cannot open subject dir: $!"; while ( defined ( my $subject_dir = readdir DIR ) ){ next if $subject_dir =~ /^\./; # skip . and .. push ( @subjects , $subject_dir ); } closedir(DIR); # output list of subjects as links to the script or modify as links # to pages sub nav_bar { print qq[]; foreach ( @subjects ) { print < $_ HTML } print qq[]; } Hope this helps.

Interesting Chop question.
Hi, I have a pain in the butt array that SOMETIMES has a CR at the end and sometimes does not. Can anyone think of a way to test to see if the \n is there and if it is then chop else no chop?

Don't use chop, use chomp. It does exactly what you want -- technically, it chops off $?, which by default is \n, but doesn't chop it if it's not there. You can test the return value of chomp to see how many characters it removed. perldoc -f chomp -- Brett http://www.chapelperilous.net/ Some people manage by the book, even though they don't know who wrote the book or even what book. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

RE: [CGI] Interesting Chop question.
Use chomp(), which is just like chop() but will only remove the character if it's equal to the $/ variable (which is \n by default).

Re: [CGI] Interesting Chop question.
Ok, if you just want to get rid of a trailing space, use chomp() function instread of chop(). Coz chop() trims the the last character, and chomp() trims the record seperator ( $/ ) which is by default a new line that keeps giving you pain :-) Andre` Niel Cameron wrote: ANC: Date: Wed, 12 Dec 2001 11:22:31 -0500 ANC: From: Andre` Niel Cameron <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ANC: To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ANC: Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ANC: Subject: [CGI] Interesting Chop question.

Re: [CGI] Interesting Chop question.
I think using chomp instead of chop should do it... there should be no need for test.

Thanks for the tips guys. Francesco: where in the book did you find the code you adapted? I've got the book (I had a look before posting), but short of scanning every page, I couldn't find it.

Try using "chomp" instead of "chop". The "chomp" function was designed to do exactly what you want - it removes an ending character only if it is the likes of: newline, linefeed, carrige return, etc. So that's what I use all the time. By contrast, "chop" seems more like a carryover from older days when things were harder to do. -- Darren Duncan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Gerry, Due to the number of responses that you have received, I'm sure you realize that there are many ways to do this. As for myself, I have built some rather large database driven Web sites with Template Toolkit and I find that I like to have the navigation system stored in the database as a node structure. With one root level node, you can have a table listing all nodes, each listing a parent node and title. The table would look something like this: Node Parent Description -- --- 11 Home 21 Poets 31 Ex-girlfriends 42 Ovid 52 John Davidson 62 Tennyson 73 Lainie 83 Carrie This breaks down as (this will show up with a fixed-width font): 1 / \ 2 3 / | \/ \ 4 5 6 7 8 In this system, you can see how my favorite poets each fall under the number 2 node, while my ex-girlfriends (this is an abbreviated list, trust me) fall under the 3 node. Want to drill down from number 2? Select all nodes who list 2 as a parent. Want to go back up? Select 2's parent. Need to find all nodes on a particular level? Select all nodes with the same parent. If you want documents in those nodes, create a documents table which contain the node ids that they apply to. You can either serve your docs out of the database or just have the paths in their. This system is fairly flexible and easy to control. Cheers, Curtis "Ovid" Poe = Senior Programmer Onsite! Technology (http://www.onsitetech.com/) "Ovid" on http://www.perlmonks.org/ __ Do You Yahoo!?

advice required
hi guys, the problem i have is this. i am running the UK Adhesions Society Website being non profit and with little funding our present server is capable of * perl/cgi * ssi * html/shtml and we cant afford to upgrade the server at present. the site is about to evolve from a basic info system to utelising dynamic news and updates. thus i would like to implement a form of non technical submision of articles and news. i planned on doing this by use of forms to create articles etc.. and use a perl backend to update these pages. i would like to store the documents in a database format as to move to mysql at a later date. to cut a long story short. i was looking for some advice on implemeting this eg. best db format to use. - ( both for speed and easy transferel to mysql ) any other comments thanks in adavance. -- --- K.G.Findlay [EMAIL PROTECTED] Knight Shift (Web/Software Design) "Your only young once, but you can be imature forever" --- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
