Seem to have stated my own solution.
$outlog=gzopen($fn,"a"); specifies appendage to a file whereas
$outlog=gzopen($fn,"wb"); specifies overwriting a file.
Does anyone know how to READ a gzip file into an array?

Hi all,
I'm running a site with a lot of compressed text files containing data for
various clients. Some of these files get appended to (lets say, a log file
perhaps). Is there some prevision to the Compress:Zlib module that lets you
specify that you want to append to a file? (instead of needin

Hi all,
I have a list of 40 or so files that need to be sorted into an array by
article date (found in first line of each file in the form DD-MM-).
I can't figure out how to go about it successfully... Can anyone help me out
please??
Thanks in advance!

Unless there is some way to ZIP the file just before sending, it would be
impractical for my particular situation Stephan. The files are updated and
written to constantly on the server by the users who 'own them' so to speak.
They are data files that are used by doctorate students for questionnai

Couldn't seem to locate it (using MacPerl) unfortunately. There is a few
pods that came with it, but mostly I'm using The Perl CD Bookshelf by
O'reilly & Associates for reference. It's on my PC system when I need it
though.

I'm writing a script that will require a text file on my http server to be

This is how I print the contents of a hash (Thanks to Brett W. McCoy):

Hi all, just thought I'd pick your brains regarding a possibly theoretical
question (tell me if it's not!)...

So the script halves in size and now becomes:

#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use CGI qw(:standard);
my $cgi = new CGI;
my %params = $cgi->Vars;
open(COUNTER,"entrycount.txt");
while(){
$entrynumber = $_; ###get previous entry number

}
close(COUNTER);

Thanks Brett, that's very handy to know!

Hi all,
I'm trying to get this string (example):
$all_codes = '4c1 4- 4c2 4-8b1 8g1';
in to an array (@codes), using it's whitespace as the delimiter.
ie. @codes = split(/ /,$all_codes);
but I keep getting extra whitespace elements picked up into the array...:
'4c1,4-,4c2,4-, ,8b1,8g1'

I found a solution not long after using a loop of sorts. (and killed two
birds with one stone, as my next step was to put each item (space delimited)
into an array).
I made a loop saying, 'as long as $input still has characters in it, put
each one (one at a time) into the @front_chars array, then
Hi all,
I'm trying to get a string (held in a variable) to have all it's characters

ie. $input's content changes from '1234' to '1 2 3 4'
Is there some way to do this?

Yes, Apache interprets the shebang line before running the script- the
script needs to point to the OS-dependant path to Perl before it will run.
