Kristina,
This is how my code works...
my @oofmsg = param('oofmsg');
print<<HTML;
</tr>
<tr>
<td vAlign="top" width="89" height="150">
<p><b style="font-weight: bold; font-size: 13px; color: #666666;
font-family: arial, helvetica">Out
Of Office Message</b></td>
<td vAlign="top" width="287" height="146" align="center">
<p><textarea rows="11" name="oofmsg"
cols="41">@vac</textarea></p>
<p> </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td vAlign="top" width="381" height="14" colspan="2">
<input type="hidden" value="$uname" name="uname">
<input type="hidden" value="@oofmsg" name="offmsg">
<input type="hidden" value="xcrud" name="action">
<input type="image" alt="Add User" src="$imageDIR/submit.gif"
align="right" width="119" height="36">
</td>
</tr>
</form>
</table>
HTML
Something similar to the following...
Now the only problem I am having is when @vac is displayed in the text
box. The formatting isn't correct.
Ie there is spaces in front of each new line except the first line....
Hello
world
Dan
Now the text file vacation.txt doesn't look like this?
Any more ideas?
Dan

Try the following code:
undef $";
print "@lines";
$" = " "; #there's a space between the two double quotes
Otherwise you could just do this:
print @lines; #without the double quotes default is no space or
anything
else
That is to say if indeed you've got a 'print "@lines";' thing going on.
Please include your perl code in your post.
Cheers,
Kristina

Peter,
That is exactly what it does but is there any way to get rid of that?
Regards,
Dan

If you don't provide the code you use to do it you force us to use
clairvoyance to try and tell what you might be doing wrong.
I am going to guess that you have done something like
print "@lines"
which will result in a space being put between each element of the
array...
