Re: Correction! CGI.pm : Handling Carriage Returns from textarea()

2004-09-08 Thread Robert Page IV
Gunnar:
I have attached the CGI script: weekly.pl. The subroutine save_weekly()
captures the 'executive summary' and 'details' values entered into the 
textarea via
$summary = param('executive summary') and $details = param('details').

For Debug purposes, I print $summary and $detail. I may make this a 
review
feature. Anyway, none of the text displays WITH carriage returns.
I am beginning to suspect this is due to HTML not recognizing these
characters in the variables. H.
