Hi, I am putting together a simple website and would like visitors to be able to type a number into a form (say 1234) and a perl script should run open an existing page called .../1234.html or generate an error page if the use enters a wrong number. I will have already uploaded the page before a user enters the number so the per script can open it rather than generate a new one (unless it can be generated on the fly which may be better?)
I think this should be able to be done but I have no idea how. for instance how do i append the '.html' to the file name. The website is here (www.ashcraftframing.co.uk) . The fom is in the bottom right of the page and launches a invopice page for PayPal. I want users to enter a invoice number corresponding to a page I have already up loaded. If anyone know of some pre existing code I can modify I'd be very grateful. I have only done a little 'cook book' scripting so please go easy on me!
