Premature end of script headers FRUSTRATION

Hello again group. I've been stareing at this for ages trying to figure out why it's not working, I can't see why it's not. Am I blind? I think my trouble is in the very last section. What I'm trying to do is when a user hits back after clicking an item to put in his/her cart, the button is

Commenting.

Is there a way to block comment in Perl? My book only covers using # to comment individual lines. Is there a symbol I can use to comment out entire sections of code for the debugging process?

Concatination

Hello group. I am getting an error in my apache logs that is not clear to me what exactly is wrong. I get the same error in different scripts, and completely different lines, so I'll just post one and hopefully once I know how to fix this one, I can fix the rest. Line 27: $cookie =

Content Type

Hello, I have a script that is acting funny. I have this line in it: $addtocart_co-header(-cookie=$pid_cookie); Does that line not handle the content type as well? I get premature end of script headers with just that. But if I add this line: print Content-type: text/html\n\n; It works,

Re: Content Type

Yes. You did print out the return value, didn't you? The header method of CGI.pm doesn't print the header out, it returns it; you have to print it out yourself. No I didn't, I did not know I needed to. It works great now thanks AGAIN! -Dave -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Getting frustrated. DBI Access 97 issues.

Hello group. I need someone who has a lot of experience to help me...possibly on an on going basis because I have asked for help on this issue before to no avail. Everyone says that it looks right...but it is not right. Something is wrong. When I click the link (with a freshly erased browser

Premature end of script headers

What is wrong with this line? print qq~/FORM\n~; Some reserved word in there? The error is Premature end of script headersif that helps. If I take that line out it works fine (CGI wise, not HTML wise) Can someone help me? -Dave

DBI limitations

Hello, can someone tell me why DBI can only handle 6 fields? I have a data base table that has more than 6, and I don't know how I'm going to accommodate it all in my cgi script. I'm new at this.

ANSIScreen

Can someone tell me if ANSIScreen works under windows98? I have the module installed, but instead of color showing up in my program, I seem to get some kind of color code. Ex. This text is bold blue.

ANSIColor

ANSIColor, and ANSIScreen are both installed, if color doesn't work, will any of the screen stuff work either?

Simple one liner problem.

I can't seem to use variables like thiswhy not? Is there a simple way to do this? Without having to manually do it with an array traversing check/change function? $workingcopy =~ tr/$lettertochange/$lettertochangeto/g; I also tried $workingcopy =~ s/$lettertochange/$lettertochangeto/g;

Simple on liner problem follow up.

Thanks guys, that part now works thanks to all who supported me. I've run into a similar problem now though in this code: print Select a letter to change to: ; $lettertochangeto = STDIN; if ($lettertochangeto =~ m/$workingcopy/i)#PROBLEM LINE I THINK { print That letter is already

Parent and Current Directories

Hello group! I'm trying to list all files in a directory EXCEPT the current and the parent directories. ie. . .. file1 file2 file3 Is not what I want. I only want: file1 file2 file3 I thought I had the right code, but I don't. while($i ($#filelist)) { if ((@filelist[$i] ne '.') ||

Absolute Path

Hi group! Little bit of background. I made a perl cgi that scans a directory for files and auto generates a html page with hyperlinks to download whatever files are in the directory. I don't know if there's an easier way to do this than what I did (built it from scratch) but I'm doing this

Mysterys of the Unknown STDIN

I'm working on a fairly lengthy ( for a newbie like me) program that has two modes. The user can type mine blah and my program will find all blah or he/she can type mine ! to enter interactive mode. The problem is that when I get to this snippet: sub getinteractivesearch { #print

Re: Mysteries of the STDIN

Paul, yeah the print is there just to help me debug. Isn't the same as STDIN? Are you saying I should change that? Bill, it is a perl file that I used pl2bat to convert to a batch file. I can run it either way, as a .pl or as a .bat...the result is the same. -Dave

RE: Mysteries of the Unknown STDIN RESOLVED!!

Hi group, just wanted to thank all who helped me out with this little problem, particularly Paul Johnson who's input ended up being the key to my problem. I appreciate all of your help! -Dave

DBI problems

Hi group! Just got back from a trip, and I'm a little rusty (a rusty newbie, JOY) Anyway, before I left I was having trouble inserting new data into my database table, and oddly enough, the problem didn't solve itself while I was gone. :( Here is my current code. I've been racking my brain,

Newbie question about running programs from the command line.

Hi group. Short 'n sweet question. Is there a way to run perl programs from the command line without having to precede usage with perl so I can go myprogram [Arguments] Instead of perl myprogram [Arguments] If there is no way to do this...would making a bat file (windows) of the same name

Re: Telnet

Yes and no. You cannot do it with telnet, but you can get what you want by using an x-term client and setting up the server box to allow x connections. One commercial example of an X-Term client for a windows box would be X-Win32. Do a search on the net for X-Win32 and you'll find plenty of

Searching and printing a text file

Hi group! Ok, I'm trying to open all files in the directory containing my script, and search each one for lines containing my search string. This is my code so far: $i = 0; opendir(logdir, '.') or die Can't open directory.; print Enter string to search for: ; $searchstring = ; print \n; #print

Re: Searching and printing a text file

Ok, I think I understand you, but things still are not working right. Never mind, I forgot to chop my search string. Works great now :) TDH (That DID help) lol.

Re: using perl in mandrake

I'm new to perl too, but I think I can help. As far as I can tell, perlscript is embeded right into an HTML file the same way you do VBScript or JavaScript, so your file would have the regular *.html extention. If on the other hand, you are using a full fledged perl program, you can run it from
