I may be wrong but I do not believe you can do this. This works with
javascript because the javascript engine is client side (built into
the browser). Perl is a server side tool. What you could do is
something like this:
<form name="formName" method="POST" action="/zippywowscript.pl">
<input type="checkbox" name="newCheckBox"
onclick="document.newForm.submit(); return true;" value="someValue">

Hi everyone,
I'm writing a perl program for a web interface. In this interface,
I'm setting up a html checkbox such that when it is clicked, a perl
subroutine is called.
I know that I can call a javascript function when a checkbox is
clicked in the following way:
print "<input type='checkbox' name='check' value='checkbox'
onClick='javascriptfn();'>";
But how can I use the same checkbox to call a perl subroutine?
Any kind of guidance would be really appreciated.
thanks
