Re: Some questions
Hi Martin, You should start learning regular expressions e.g. by typing perldoc perlre or probably better with one of the Perl Books.

multipart/form-data Method POST to cgi script not working
Hello all,
If anyone could shed some light on this I would be in there debt. I know
what the BIG problem is...these scripts where written in perl5.004 and we
have moved or are moving to 5.6.0, but I don't know where to start looking
to fix the code so that is works with 5.6.0.
This is a multipart/form-data form, using method POST I'm unable to
retrieve the params passed to the cgi via $cgi-param('PARAM'), HOWEVER,
if the method is GET the $cgi-param('PARAM') works, but GET is not
supposed to work with multipart/form-data and doesn't in actually getting
the file sent by the user via an upload script.
I've even gone over the httpd.conf in hopes that it could be in there.
Everything is install RPM, but I've also tried source with the same results.
I will try to include everything that will be of help, but if I forget
something just e-mail me and I'll get it for you.
Thanks in advance,
Chris

Creating a new query object from an input file
I am trying to use part of the CGI module doc about giving a new
object the parameters saved in a file.
I am able to save the parameters to a file:
SAVING THE STATE OF THE SCRIPT TO A FILE:
$query-save(FILEHANDLE)
and I'm able to add to the parameters that an object already has:
$query-param(-name='foo',-value='the value');
I'm able to also initialize the query object from an associa
tive array reference:
$query = new CGI( {'dinosaur'='barney',
'song'='I love you',
'friends'=[qw/Jessica George Nancy/]}
);
But I'm NOT able to use this:
CREATING A NEW QUERY OBJECT FROM AN INPUT FILE
$query = new CGI(INPUTFILE);
With the code:
#!/usr/local/bin/perl -w
use CGI;
# set a parameter and save it in a file
open (OUT,/home/greg/test.out) or die No open greg/test.out: $!;
$p = new CGI;
$p-param(-name='ID',-value='23423456');
$p-save(OUT);
close OUT;
# reopen for reading
open (IN,/home/greg/test.out) or die No params from test.out: $!\n;
$q = new CGI;
print $q-header,
$q-start_html;
foreach $name ($q-param) {
print ($name, =, $q-param($name), $q-p);
}
print $q-end_html;
I get in the debugger,
DB2
main::(./other.pl:14): $q = new CGI(IN);
DB2
main::(./other.pl:16): print $q-header,
main::(./other.pl:17): $q-start_html;
DB2 x $q
0 CGI::Object=HASH(0x826c1e8)
'.charset' = 'ISO-8859-1'
'.fieldnames' = HASH(0x8297b84)
empty hash
'.named' = 0
'.parameters' = ARRAY(0x82909c0)
0 'keywords'
'keywords' = ARRAY(0x828defc)
0 'IN'
DB3
And then as evaluating IN shows, the parameters are sitting
there waiting to be read in.
DB3 x IN
0 'ID=23423456
'
1 '=
'
DB4
Curiously, this returning of 'keyword' for the parameters is what
the perldoc says to expect if the script was invoked as an
ISINDEX request.
So I gave up and inserted this to read from the file myself.
while (IN) {
last if $_ =~ m/^=$/;
($name, $value) = split '=';
$q-param(-name = $name, -value = $value);
}
And this works. But why doesn't
$q = new CGI(IN);
work?

I don't see any immediate problem (though maybe it's glaring and I'm just not getting

#!/usr/bin/perl -wT
use strict;
use CGI;
use Data::Dumper;
my $cgi = CGI-new;
print $cgi-header,
$cgi-start_html( 'CGI Test' ),
$cgi-pre( Dumper $cgi ),
$cgi-end_html;
That will dump the CGI object to the screen. You'll see something like the following:
$VAR1 = bless( {
'.header_printed' = '1',
'.charset' = 'ISO-8859-1',
'.parameters' = [
'color',
'name'
],
'.fieldnames' = {},
'name' = [
'Ovid'
],
'color' = [
'red'
]
}, 'CGI' );
The '.parameters' will tell you the name of any parameters that were passed and later
you can see
the values associated with the individual parameters. It will also show you cookies,
if
available. They'll be in a CGI::Cookie object.
Basically, if you get no .parameters, you know that the CGI object did not get any
data.

What was the problem you couldn't solve with Perl? We do the same thing here. Our front-end people handle the javascript work and I occassionally tweak it to serve my needs. The advantage of javascript is that it is client-side and offers much faster response than Perl. I will sometimes use javascript to validate form data *prior* to it being sent to the server, simply because this ensures a quicker response. However, I must *still* validate the form data on the server side because the client may have javascript disabled either out of personal preference or desire to submit bad data (crackers, for example). A good rule of thumb with javascript: if you cannot control who will have access to the site, use it to enhance functionality, but not provide it. If your site is requires javascript, you may be turning away potential users. We do build sites that require javascript, but usually they are things like administrative consoles where we can restrict access to a set of users who have agreed upon the requirements.
