Hello everyone,
Fairly new to the list here (and perl), so if this is an inappropriate
post, please forgive me. I've got the Learning Perl book plus a few
others...but I'm still scratching my head over this one.
Just a beginning test page where the end-user submits a name and gets a
page back with that name in it. The page works,however, the warning I
keep getting is:
"Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string..."
I also noticed this same type of warning when I attempt to take the same
thing (user input) and try to compare it to another variable, using this
example--> $my other variable=~/$name/ operator. I can't get anything to
match.
Here is a snippet of code that will generate the error messsage above:
#!c:\Perl\Perl5.00402\bin\perl.exe -w
#Set Perl Parameters
#use strict;
#The CGI.pm module will take input from the form and process it for you.
use CGI qw(:standard);
my $name=param("name");
print "<h2>You entered: $name <p>\n";
Thanks in advance for any help you might be able to provide a newbie.
