Hi All,
I am currently having the same problems as Sven. I tried to get some info on it as
wel, but it seems a difficult one.
I have made a simple example to explain it a little :
HTML-CODE:
---
<html>
<form method=post action="/cgi-bin/david/1.cgi">
<table>
<input type=hidden name=hide1 value="secure">
<input type=hidden name=hide2 value="very secure">
<tr><td>please enter your First name </td><td><input type=text name=userid></td></tr>
<tr><td>Please enter your Last name </td><td><input type=password name=pw></td></tr>
<tr><td><a href=/cgi-bin/david/1.cgi>Please try this one</a></td></tr>
<tr><td><input type=submit></td></tr>
</table></form>
</html>
--------------------------------------
Perl-script:
---
#!/user/cadiclab/bin/perl
use CGI qw(:standard);
$first = param('userid');
$last = param('pw');
$hide1 = param('hide1');
$hide2 = param('hide2');
print header,
start_html(-BGCOLOR=>"#99cccc"),
start_form;
print "Hallo userid: $first with password: $last <br><br>";
print "Hidden fields are; <br><br>Field1: $hide1 <br>Field2: $hide2 <br>";
print end_form,
hr;
------------------------------------------
Ones I hit the submit button the cgi-script does it all for me.
He tells me who I am and he prints the hidden fields.
Ones I hit the <a href> the params are not read within my cgi-script ?
Not the input type=text and not the input type=hidden.
Is there a way to get this working ?
Any other solutions to a more secure way of solving this are welcome too !
P.S.: I need the links to browse through directory's and do stuff with it.
A submit button instead of a <a href> does not look very fancy :)
Best Regards,
David van der Geer
