Re: cgi form generates a cronjob
Frank, You could do a sudo www command and using sed you culd edit Now I have never done anything like this but I can see how I would approach it to edit the cronjob.

If so, what are the key steps? I've been thinking about how to develop this but for some reason I cannot rectify, in my head, how to edit a crontab file as www when www is not really a user in the /home dir... thanks Frank -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://learn.perl.org/ http://learn.perl.org/first-response
Re: Perl out to PHP
How about this: 1) first page is php with action to a perl page 2) page is a perl page that process the info and redirects to a the first page 3) back to first page but here you check the referrer and if it is a perl page then display your data other wise is just the first time the php page gets called.

We have website done with PHP, it did my brother. But I'm more into perl, so I did some scripts. Website is about checking IPs (if it is up, and so on), so I wrote script for that.

Drieux == Drieux [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Drieux just a quick knickle tour - I of course will defer to Randal Drieux to go into more detail if required. That covers most of it, but let me put it a different way. use CGI::Carp qw(fatalsToBrowser); presumes that the person operating the browser is the person also developing the program. While this can certainly be true during development, it is rarely true (if ever!) in production. Here's the problem: The end user doesn't want to see a Perl error message. They will probably have no clue what to do to work around it, and will rarely understand how to precisely copy that error (and any associated state or sequence descriptions) to a proper email buffer to email the developer. But worse, the end user *shouldn't* see the details of the error, which will often include filenames and other key data that might reveal the security mechanisms being used. This is prime intrusion vector information - a goldmine for the person wanting to abuse the website. All you should do for a non-recoverable error is tell the user: SOMETHING WENT WRONG. WE ALREADY KNOW ABOUT IT. IF YOU WANT TO TELL US WHAT YOU WERE DOING: email [EMAIL PROTECTED] referencing trouble ticket #12345. and then on the server side, log the hell out of the error, and create a trouble ticket so there can be a repair made and correlation with any user. If you don't want to create a ticket, just use unpack(H*, pack NS, time, $$), which should be fairly unique and yet short enough to cut and paste nicely. In fact, that'd be nice column idea!

Re: apache in win2k
Conan, I bet you, that if you put the shebang line pointing to the perl\bin\perl directory it will work. I had my perl working with apache and I downloaded activestate perl and all of a sudden I was getting the same message Can not Spawned. I change my shebang line on all my perl script and it worked.

I have never used it. What is the purpose of it been there?

Subject: RE: What is the value of @_4_[0], and $return_me? (see below)
Well, for a start, you have a spelling mistake in there...
my $retun_me = shift; - probably should be - my $return_me = shift;
Secondly, what exactly are you trying to do with this code ? I don't know
too much about perl, but I think the assignment:
@_ = @arr;
might be a little suspicious. I normally grab the arguments passed to
my
sub routine from @_ , I don't usually assign *to* it.
In the end, it seems like this subroutine should return the first value in
@arr, which is 0.
Does any of this help ?

HELP - finding a float while reading a file
Hi there, I am trying to read a file and find the last numeric value in the line read. example: 123 45 -23 56 -3.45 145 555 112 -12.0 -2.55 all of the values are separated by a space and I am looking for the last value. I tried $_ = s/[-][0-9].+$/$1/; $number = $1; The problem is that, not aleways I am getting the last value starting at the negative value. Somtime I get the second to last value.

Perl:readina doc file and adding a gif
I am trying to figure out how to insert a gif file in the middle of a word
file(.doc).
I am asking here, becasue I thought maybe someone has come acrss this
before.
I can read the doc file and create it as a different file and word will
read, but if
I try inserting someting into the file, then word can not read it.
Does anyone know the format or the correct way to insert a gif file in
middle of a
microsoft word file(.doc)
I can read the word file using something like:
while(read(FILE, $buf, $len))
{
#Here when ever I find a key word I open the gif file, read and insert
#a print statement intothe OUT file handle
if($_ =~ /nestor/)
{
while(read(GIF, $buf2, $len))
{
print OUT $gif;
}
}
print OUT $_;
}
When I look at the size of the new file, I can tell that tne input file and
the GIF file are all one file but word does nto recognize the document.
There must be some word format saying at this point
display the gif file, kind of like in an HTML file you would have an
IMAGE tag.
How big do you have to set the $len scalar? I set it to 1024 currently.
Can anyone give me any hints for the proper format to insert a gif file into
a word file.
Thanks,
Nestor
