Hello All!
I have a HTML text box that I need users to write what ever they like in
it. Similar to the following....
my $oofmsg = param('oofmsg');
$me = 'dan';
That gets passed on through a scrolling text box and from there it is
writen to a file like the following....
open VAC2, "+< $file" or die "Cannot open $file in update mode:$!";
flock(VAC2, 2) || die "Can't lock $file exclusively: $!";
print VAC2 $oofmsg;
system("cp -Rf $file /home/$me/$file");
close VAC2;
So far everything seems to be working fine except for the fact that the
variable $oofmsg doesn't keep it's formatting from the scrolling text
box.
I mean if the user types the following into a text box like so...
Hello World
How are you?
Dan
The file $file is written to as the following...
HelloWorldHowareyou!Dan
Is it possible to keep the formating? I.e new lines and spaces?
Thx,
Dan
