Replying to my own post...I was wondering if anyone here can make a
recommendation on a GOOD hosting provider that supports Perl5 and
PostgreSQL (and PHP4 as well, ideally).
Just a thought: These values may be still tainted. Do you use CGI.pm?

It's not pokey anymore, and yes, it is open source, and while MySQL may be
faster for basic queries, for more complex things, MySQL just can't cut
it, plus it's missin

Hello All,
Is there some way (without using cron) that the update of a file can
trigger a Perl (CGI) script to run? Specifically, I would like to
update a text (flat file) database every time an addition/deletion is made
to a password file. I know that I could run a cron job that compares the

Lynn,
there is more to 'save' than waste of memory - saved is only what can be
retreived. I had to tell this my former bosses every two weeks and I
never felt that I made them understand.;=)
Therefore, you may keep a table with the locations of your data files in
a special file. BTW, this is wha
Well, I don't need any database functionality per se, just save and
retrieve, but if it makes my life *easier* instead of harder then I'm all
for it. :) The save to text file was so easy that initially looked to be the
simplest approach.
Thanks for the suggestion, I'll check it out.

I'm having a horrible time deciding the best way to accomplish this goal.
Let me see if I can explain this well enough that I can get some
suggestions.

If you are using CGI.pm, there is a method called redir
Hi,
You can do a couple of things.
1) just print a Location: header like
if ($name eq 'invader') {
print "Location:http://www.foo.com/invader\n\n";;
}
Or, using CGI.pm, use the redirect function:
if ($name eq 'invader') {
print redirect('http://www.foo.com/invader');
Hi,
I want to do a redirection based on a variable
for example:
if ($name eq 'invader') {
redirection to some URL ;
}
What do i have to put in the middle line to do the redirection...
In javascript i would put: location.href=url
but in perl i don't know what to put...
Thanks in advanc

instead of a string you give -src an array. If CGI.pm was aware of
this it propably would produce HTML like this:

The best Perl/CGI book that I
There's a little problem. I changed the pattern matching to:
/^(!?)(.*)=(.*)$/i or die ;
but it still seems to ignore back referencing to $2 such that
the "i" case switch considers the key "component" as different
from "Component" (they're the true values of "line#").
Yes, the key=values

Just to point out
Most ( ? all ) of the distributions have specific mailing lists. I
subscribe to the SuSE list which is excellent. Once you have made the
change you will never want to go back. Good luck.
