The reason this works is that when you read from STDIN, you are getting the
newline from when the user of the program hits return. Using '=~' is
implying a 'match', which will match the string/regexp supplied within the
variable's value. 'eq' means the two strings have to be exactly equal to
ea
A cleaner way to do it is:
printf "%s, %s %s %s %s\n", (split ' ', localtime)[0,2,1,4,3];
Or, if you want to save it to a variable:
my $dateout = sprintf "%s, %s %s %s %s\n", (split ' ', localtime)[0,2,1,4,3];

Derek, it was nice of you to include your title and all. That way when a

You can use the tainted() function of the Scalar::Util module,

I'm no CGI expert, but my best guess is that you are not going to be able to
stop the user from resending the data, so you are going to have to make sure
you ignore the resent data. I would do this by generating a random number in
a hidden input field when creating the form. Then you can check that
problem on your own. If you can't, then
write to the *appropriate* forum (as someone else mentioned,
this has nothing to do with CGI, so you should have posted
to a different list). And when you write, post not only the

My guess is that since you're running sudo, sudo itself is asking for a
password *for the nobody/apache account*, where it's set up not to ask you
for a password (which is bad mojo), or you already ran sudo once and you've
got a valid ticket.
