Subject: RE: Javascript and Perl
Help!!
Yes. The results from javascript can be put into hidden fields
and passed to the perl script behind the form that contains
javascript.
crude example:
<head>
<SCRIPT language="JAVASCRIPT">
<!--
function checkForm(){
var location =
document.SearchForm.location.value;
eval
(document.SearchForm.hidden_field.value =
location;);
document.SearchForm.submit();
return true;
}
// -->
</SCRIPT>
<title>Test Form</title>
<center>
<form name= "SearchForm"
action="">
<input type="text" size="20" maxlength="20"
name="location">
<input type="hidden" name="hidden_field"
value="">
<input type="button" value="enter data" >
</form>
PERL Script:
#!c:\perl\bin\perl.exe
=pod
=head1 Test
script
=head2
=over 4
=item 1
Function: Script pulls data from hidden field.
=back
=cut
use CGI qw/:standard/;
use CGI::Carp qw(fatalsToBrowser);
my ($hidden_field);
$cgi = new CGI;
$hidden_field =
$cgi->param('hidden_field');
&do_something($hidden_field);
exit(0);
Is there anyway to take the results of Javascript code and use them in
Perl?
For example I have code that retrieves a cookie. I want to use
the value of that cookie in Perl to run some mySQL queries. Can anyone
help?
