RE: [perl-win32-gui] Window with no dialogue

[Philip A. Larson]

Insert a timer into the window set for however many seconds you want. When the timer event occurs, terminate the window.   Gosh I like easy questions,   Phil Larson -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Jonathan Southwick Sent: Thursday, May 06, 1999 1:38 PM To: Perl Help Subject: [perl-win32-gui] Window with no dialogue HI.  I am trying to create a window that requires no interaction between a user and itself. Basically all I want it for is when a user clicks on a send button I want a window to pop up that says that the mail is being sent and to please wait.  After the mail is sent I want the window to close.  I did get it to do this except that if I don't include the $window->Dialog(); command then the labels that contain the information do not get displayed on the window; it is left blank.  If I do include the $window->Dialog(); command then the program waits for the user to interact with it.  I don't want any user interaction.   Is this possible?  Also ... did anyone figure out if you can intercept key strokes, such as Cntrl-C and/or Cntrl-Break, in Perl?   Thanks for any help I can get.   Jonathan Southwick                            [EMAIL PROTECTED] Technical & Network Services             814-332-2755 Allegheny College Meadville, PA  16335 ---------------------------------- ***Everything is within walking distance if you've got the time ***
