Re: Perl CGI using JavaScript

[Tim Dumas]

<snip from= "David Lewis" email= "[EMAIL PROTECTED]">       I am writing a Perl CGI script which generates an HTML file that uses javascript javascript.  I need to       enable Perl to use some of the variables created in the javascript code.  If anyone knows how to make       this happen, or can point me toward someone who can, I'd really appreciate it.  Thanks </snip>   Well, I'm not sure I really understand what you are trying to do exactly. However, from your description I am assuming it's a cgi application. That being the case the first thing that comes to mind is that can use this . . .   <form name="myform"       onsubmit="writeVariablesToHiddenFields();"       method="post|get"       action="http://domain.com/cgi-bin/whatever.pl">   Then write the function "writeVariablesToHiddenFields()" to populate those hidden fields. making sure you return true at the end of the function so that the form submission takes place. Then all you should have to do is use those fields to populate your perl variables.   Hopefully this is what you were looking for,   Tim Dumas www.blindswholesale.com [EMAIL PROTECTED]   ($_="115630525841264815593750 59425919501649496140251515604 14115302119504049415815213536 15491760422119366061522953532 11559584920263641371859145844 1526")=~s/(.)(.)(..)/pack("C", substr($_[1],$1.$2,4).substr ($_[1],$3,4))/ge if $_[1]= unpack("B*",<DATA>);print; __END__ WINDOZE
