Not sure if this is the correct place to ask, partly because I'm not sure where the problem lies. Environ: Winnt, ActiveState Perl, ImageMagick, Apache. Script uses CGI standard. I am attempting to access various methods from Image::Magick, some of which require no arguments, 1 argument, several args, and I want to access methods with arguments as follows:
$method = param("meth"); # works, grabs 'Rotate', 'Convolve' etc.. $method_args = param("margs"); # works also - to a degree $result = $image-> $method ("$method_args"); When 'method' requires 1 argument (like Rotate - requires a numeric value in degrees), passing the method name and 'simple' argument (like $method is 'Rotate' and $method_args is 90) the form: $result = $image-> $method ("$method_args"); works without a hitch (and I must admit I am delighted...). When the method can accept more than one argument (like Border which requires a 'geometry' string like '2x2' and -should- accept a second argument for color in the form color=>'red' the second argument is ignored. Can anybody tell me what is happening, why the 'supplemental' arguments are being ignored? TIA and any feedback including RTFM itsat (one word meaning it {the FM} is at ) is appreciated.
