And blocking one address won't do you *any* good as it's fake more
often than not, and even if not, complaints to the ISP will often
cause it to be closed down so he can't post from there any more
anyway. Which is why "remove" addresses are a hoax -- by the time you
get the spam, they may be invalid :).

Check out the CGI.pm website. CGI.pm will allow you to upload a file and
save it to the server where ever you want to.

Subject: Creating graphics on the fly for web pages
Message-Id: <7ktqr6$cei$1@nnrp1.deja.com>
I am making a web page which uses data posted from a form to dynamically
create graphs (using gnuplot). These graphs are to be served up to the
next web page, along with some other formating. There is a possibility
for multiple graphs on one page and many users simultaneously.
My basic problem is that I want to create temp files (I use the $$ to
generate the name of the gif on the fly) and then delete them
immediately after being served to the web page. When I tried something
like this
. . . .
$| = 1; # to force the output
print "<img src=\"$temp_gif\">
print "</body></html>";
$|=0;
sleep 5; # I tried this in one version - the only dif - the page
took
# an extra five seconds to load
unlink $temp_gif;
I got the page with a broken image sign. I guess I delete the picture
too early. If I take off the unlink command, everything runs smoothly.
If anyone has a fix that isn't too cumbersome, I would be very
appreciative. I think my last resort is to run a cron job on the server
which deletes all of the gif files in the temp directory.
thank you so much,
mike.

Yes. Try it. Perl's flock() works on NT too. Just don't

You shoud use the substitution...
$variable =~ s/\n/ /g;
This will substitute all the "\n" with spaces...

That is wrong -- 's/\n/ /g' is what was requested. And it is at least
an order of magnitude slower than 'tr/\n/ /'.

Looks to me as if there's a \r in there somewhere. Try replacing \r\n
with space e.g. tr/\r\n/ /s .

A better solution would be:
my @array3 = ();
{
my (%h1, %h2);
@h1{@array1} = ();
@h2{@array2} = ();
for my $key (keys %h1) {
push @array3 => $key unless exists $h2{$key};
}
}
Another, more cryptic solution would be:
my @array3 = ();
{
my $str = join '|' => map { quotemeta } @array2;
@array3 = grep { !/^(?:$str)$/ } @array1;
}

Alright, here's another question about localtime that I couldn't find
the
answer for by running "perldoc -f localtime"... I hope no one minds
toooooo much. :)
I have the following perl program that when run on the commandline it
returns the correct time, but once it is run through apache the time is
an
hour behind. This only happens on one of my computers and not the
other two. I would guess it's some kind of TZ setting or daylight
savings
setting, but I don't know where it would be located at.
Here's the code:
--- Start ---
#!/usr/local/bin/perl -w
use diagnostics;
use strict;
my ($yyyy, $mm, $dd, $hh, $mi, $ss) = (localtime)[5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0];
$yyyy += 1900;
$mm++;
print "Content-Type: text/html\n\n";
printf "Current date and time is: %2.2d-%2.2d-%4d: %2.2d:%2.2d:%2.2d\n",
$mm, $dd, $yyyy, $hh, $mi, $ss;

I have to disagree. TY Perl in 21 Days, gave me a solid foundation. I agree
that it is by FAR, not the best Perl book our there, but it gave me a start.
I then moved on to 'Programming Perl' which was the best help. I just order
the black panther book and am very excited about getting it in.
TY Perl didnt make me a programmer, it just got me interested :) and gave me
enough no how to get myself places in Perl.

perldoc -f seek may help you; however, seek() only knows about bytes,
not about lines. Remembering the byte offset (e.g. with tell()) and
saving it somewhere else is left as an exercise to the reader.

You could store the position (using "tell") where you left off and do
a "seek" to it the next time. Or store the line number and do
$_=<> while $.<$linenum;
I'd do the first, since it's likely to be faster, and sounds like

What exactly to put in the tr depends, of course, on the character set

Methinks you are asking too much here for simple answers, meanwhile
avoiding reading the docs and trying things out yourself.

Subject: WWWBoard for NT
Message-Id: <37727687.0@news.hcs.net>
I am looking for somewhere that has a message board (WWWBoard) that I can
download to use on my NT Server v. 4.0. All of the WWWboard's online are
comaptible only with Unix and I need one that has been written with NT in
mind. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Well, after 6 months, here's the answer to the quiz: what do we do about
comp.lang.perl.moderated. Answer: nothing.

]It is possible to subscribe to comp.lang.perl.moderated as a mailing list.
]To do so, send mail to majordomo@eyrie.org with "subscribe clpm" in the
]body. Majordomo will then send you instructions on how to confirm your
]subscription. This is provided as a general service for those people who
]cannot receive the newsgroup for whatever reason or who just prefer to
]receive messages via e-mail.
The Perl-Users Digest is a retransmission of the USENET newsgroup
comp.lang.perl.misc. For subscription or unsubscription requests, send
the single line:
subscribe perl-users
or:
unsubscribe perl-users
to almanac@ruby.oce.orst.edu.
To submit articles to comp.lang.perl.misc (and this Digest), send your
article to perl-users@ruby.oce.orst.edu.
To submit articles to comp.lang.perl.announce, send your article to
clpa@perl.com.
To request back copies (available for a week or so), send your request
to almanac@ruby.oce.orst.edu with the command "send perl-users x.y",
where x is the volume number and y is the issue number.
The Meta-FAQ, an article containing information about the FAQ, is
available by requesting "send perl-users meta-faq". The real FAQ, as it
appeared last in the newsgroup, can be retrieved with the request "send
perl-users FAQ". Due to their sizes, neither the Meta-FAQ nor the FAQ
are included in the digest.
The "mini-FAQ", which is an updated version of the Meta-FAQ, is
available by requesting "send perl-users mini-faq". It appears twice
weekly in the group, but is not distributed in the digest.
For other requests pertaining to the digest, send mail to
perl-users-request@ruby.oce.orst.edu. Do not waste your time or mine
sending perl questions to the -request address, I don't have time to
answer them even if I did know the answer.
