Fred et al, The FDFToolkit and reference is available at:
http://partners.adobe.com/asn/acrobat/forms.jsp The documentation is sparse, to say the least, but: NextFieldName Gets the next field name. The difficulty, I believe, occurs before the program gets to NextFiledName, as if I make this adjustment: $inFDF=new Acrobat::FDF('-',$ENV{'CONTENT_LENGTH'}) or die("Can't bless inFDF\n"); Now I get this: [EMAIL PROTECTED] apache]#tail logs/error_log [Sat Jul 10 21:07:01 2004] [error] Can't bless inFDF\n Now, the reference has the following for establishing a reference to an FDF object: Functions Unavailable in the Perl FDF Toolkit: FDFCreate — use new instead. For example, $inFdf = new Acrobat::FDF; FDFOpen — use new instead. For example, $inFDF = new Acrobat::FDF(‘in.fdf’); or $inFdf=new Acrobat::FDF(‘-’, $ENV{‘CONTENT_LENGTH’}); The '-', according to the reference, is a way of reading from STDIN.
