ok..still not working..maybe if i do it this way..
What exactly is not working? Are you getting an error?
here's the code i have for storing..
<snip>
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use CGI qw(:standard);
use Storable;
print "Content-type:text/html\n\n";
$sname=param('sname');
$spassword=param('spassword');
if (open(MYFILE,"c://studentdata//studentdata.db")) {
#I haven't inserted the read part here, yet.#
close(MYFILE);
You don't need to open the file with open; use the 'retrieve' method.
} else {
%student = (
student1=>{
username => $sname,
password => $spassword,
},
);
store \%studentlist, 'c://studentdata//studentdata.db';
print "<h1><center>Student was added!</h1><P><P>";
print "<form action='adminlogin.cgi' method='post'>";
print "<input type='hidden' name='name' value='michelle'>";
print "<input type='hidden' name='password' value='phonics'>";
print "<input type='submit' value='Continue'>";
}
</snip>
Here is a working example:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use warnings;
use strict;
use Storable;
my %data = (
student1 => {
username => 'name',
password => 'pass',
},
);
store( \%data, 'data.db' );
%data = ();
my $data_ref = retrieve( 'data.db' );
use Data::Dumper;
print Dumper( $data_ref );
__END__
