hi nicholas - first, a tip. if it deals w/ cgi, don't cross-post to the
beginners perl list. beginners-cgi is the correct place for this
question.
as for your problem, i don't see any code in there to pull the login
key-value pair. so try something like this:
use strict;
use CGI;
my $cgi = new CGI; # construct a reference to the CGI object
my $login = $cgi->param('login'); # get the value of 'login'
if ($login eq 'yes') {
# do something
}
etc.....
