Hi there, I'm getting this error message:
Error closing sendmail: at /webdocs/docs/clone/cgi-bin/sendoff.cgi line 48.
The email goes through successfully, but still get the error. Any help would
be greatly appreciated!
Thanks heaps.
Here's the snippet of code:
#!/usr/bin/perl -wT
use strict;
use CGI;
use CGI::Carp qw( fatalsToBrowser );
#Taint stuff, pretty standard

$ENV{PATH} = "/bin:/usr/bin";
delete @ENV{ qw( IFS CDPATH ENV BASH_ENV ) };
}
my $q = new CGI;
my $email = "foo.bar\@foobar.com";
my $message = "Hi there!\n\nThis is a test email";
send_feedback( $email, $message );
sub send_feedback {
my ($email, $message) = @_;
open MAIL, "| /usr/lib/sendmail -t -i" or die "Could not open sendmail:

Troy, this is because the server will not parse the page generated by a CGI for SSI statements. IOW the normal alternatives are : - SSI embedded in an SHTML or other admin defined filetype gets parsed & acted on accordingly before sending to the client - CGI link results in call to a program which creates the page on the fly which is then sent as is to the client > Do I need to do anything different to >this to execute it correctly so it will work like a standard SSI on my page? >Here's what I need to insert: > > Sure, just stick the file into the template within your script.

RE: Using SSI in a CGI program
The simple answer is that it won't work. SSI's are handled by the web server, and the web server will not parse your script output for them, it will only parse HTML files (or shtml depending on your setup). I've attached a module we use on occation for this specific purpose. It includes pod if you want the full explaination, but here is a summary. It currently handles virtual includes and execs. use Apt::Utils qw/handleIncludes/; my $html = ... # I assume you have the HTML in a var. my $path = "/the/path/to/the/webserver/root/" my $html = handleIncludes($html, $path); Enjoy.

RE: Using SSI in a CGI program
Troy, Not sure why you're doing that. SSI won't work on parsed pages. You're already generating a page so why not include header.html in your template or as a heredoc or open it as a filehandle and print it? -Original Message- From: Troy May [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, January 21, 2002 4:52 PM To: Beginners CGI List Subject: Using SSI in a CGI program Hello, I have an HTML template which gets inserted into a CGI program.

Briac: Thanks so much for all the help and advice. It's great to have a list like this, and I certainly appreciate the time you took to answer all my questions. That particular example is A LOT clearer now, and I learned a lot from your email. Thank you! Harv Quamen (P.S.

The amusing thing is, in this tiny example, this winds up NOT being a security hole
only because
the author forgot (or didn't know) that qw// does not interpolate variables (perldoc
perlop):
$ perl -e '
$FORM{'dir'} = shift;
my @dir = qw($FORM{'dir'});
print "@dir\n$FORM{'dir'}"' 'rm -fr /'
$FORM{dir}
rm -fr /
Blind luck saves the day (though, to be fair, once that programmer realizes the
problem, the fix
would probably introduce a security problem).

Return a ZIP file like this example
Hi,
I need help to return a winzip-file like I can do with an image like this code.
#!/usr/bin/perl
$source = "image.gif";
$status = "";
$file = "";
open (IMAGE, "<$source") or $status = "File not found!";
$size = -s "$source";
read (IMAGE, $file, $size);
close IMAGE;
if ($status ne "") {
print "content-type: text/html\n\n";
print $status;
}
else {
print "content-type: image/gif\n\n";
#print $size;
print $file;
}
This returns an image just as you view it like : http://www.domain.com/image.gif
But how to do it with a .zip file?
I've tried some different 'content-type' with no success...
Regards
