Re: saving a textarea to a text file

[Camilo Gonzalez]

Wrong. Try:

   use CGI;
   my $q = new CGI;
   my $record = $q->param('text_field');
   open(OUTFILE, ">output.txt") or die "Can't open output.txt: $!";
   print OUTFILE $record;
   close OUTFILE;

How would I go about saving the textarea of an HTML page to a text
   

file?
 

   use CGI;
   my $q = new CGI;
   my $record = $q-param('text_field');
   open(OUTFILE, ">output.txt") or die "Can't open output.txt: $!";
   print OUTFILE $record;
