How can I make the "Open File and print content statements" work from my sub make_body when called from sub create_file?
The output I get is ======================================== open message.txt; while () { = "." } print ======================================== The contents of message.txt is ======================================== Hello this is a message ======================================== The output I want is ======================================== Hello this is a message ======================================== The problem is how do I get this to work ======================================== sub make_body { $cardbody =<<__END_OF_CARD_BODY__; open TEXT, "message.txt"; while (<TEXT>) { print "$_<BR>"; } close TEXT; __END_OF_CARD_BODY__ } ======================================== The way I print the make_body function ======================================== #Write out our HTML FILE sub create_file { open(OUTFILE,">$FILE_NAME") ; print OUTFILE "$cardbody\n"; close (OUTFILE); } ========================================
