Jason, There is no prerequisite that causes me to use hashes.
I am a novice trying to write a cgi script that can be called by an html file, Once the script is called it will open file(s), displays the form, receive input from user, write the input to a file, close file(s), and provide the user with a response. I thought using hashes are one way to accomplish the above tasks. Is there a better way to accomplish the above task?
