Since all of your filenames are the same length (they might not

Subject: Every morning at 6.00 am on a NT-box...
Message-Id: <378c847d.9394296@news.rhein-zeitung.de>
Hi folks,
I`ve got a pretty complex problem:
A customer gets info-requests by a form on his webpage on a NT-Box,
which are stored into a textfile.
Right now, he can download the Textfile which is copied to a public
directory for this purpose and deleted after the download and renamed
in the secure directory to request_actual_date.txt .
Now he wants to get the file every morning at 6.00am mailed as an
attachment to his email account.
O.K. mailing the file as an attachment is no problem, Im doing this
with Blatmail, wich works great!
My problem is how to do this job best on the NT-I-Net Server.
I thought of starting a script which mails the actual textfile as
attachment, and renames it afterwoods.
But how to start the script the best way?
- Setting up a service on the NT-box wich starts the script every
morning?
And if this is the best way, how should the script be called
(Sorry, but I dont have the possibility to try this out on NT
because I just have Win 98 set up and have to deal with the admins
of the webspace provider) "perl.exe path to my script"?
Is there something special I have to take care of when coding the
script? I normally use Blatmail by a system() call.
- Is there a possibility to let the perl-script do the control of time
and starting the actions every morning without any NT-Services?
Eg by a Win32::? Module?
Any ideas?
Thanks very much in advance for every little suggestion and help,
yours Henri

Subject: getting the virtual host info...
Message-Id: <378C9169.A9C976BE@ca.ibm.com>
I am writing a script to do some form processing, and when complete, I
am trying to display a 'thank you' html page. The problem is I want the
code to work in both our test or staging environment as well as our
production environment.
I am using the following:
print $q->redirect($q->protocol() . '://' . $q->virtual_host() .
$done_url);
however, $q->virtual_host() gives the same value (www.xxx.com)
regardless of whether I am running it from http://www.xxx.com or
http://www.xxx.com:81 (our staging server).
Am I doing this correctly, or is there a better way?
Thanks!

Indeed. I thought I had tested it out with 5.005_03. Perhaps I forgot
to type the 'p', or for some reason I tested it with 5.005_57.

As you have guesses correctly, there's a special variable for that.
All special variables are documented in 'man perlvar'.
I suggest looking it up in the manual.

If you would read my message well, you would notice that I didn't mention his
name the first time--only after somebody replied asking me specifically for his
name I gave it.
I didn't want to make any changes for free. Read the second my second message
--again-- to see that I even offered money for it, but he didn't reply.
Finally, I said he was "unable or unwilling" to answer my emails. That is a
<b>FACT</b>--not an opinion. If I said he was a "jerk," (just an example, I am
not saying he is) that would definitelly be an opinion. I just limited to
saying <b>facts</b> and again, mentioned his name <b>only</b>only after
somebody ask me for.
But I would say this again and again: If an author doen't answer or at least
reply emails or calls about his scripts AFTER he received money for his/her
scripts, he/she should not sell them in the first place.
That is unethical at best.

Hi,
Easiest way to do this is put the variable name in curly brackets.....
e.g.
$var = "Hello";
$string = "sldkfsjdHelloasdsad";
if ($s =~ /${var}/) { print "Found $var in $string\n"; }
will work.

Executed HTML tags? Now, that's something new.
Anyway, if your browser is showing you something you don't expect,
your script is printing the wrong message!
It's kind of obvious what it's printing wrong. It's also obvious that
this isn't a Perl question.

That's not a specific Perl problem. And although it might be cause by
your program, the lack of code in your posting suggests that you don't
think that's the case. There are other groups to discuss this.

I think what he meant was that he has no access to the lib-dir because
it`s not his Server, but his Website.
The good thing about perl is, that he ca do it the way HE likes it and
not YOU.
To Alex:
Sorry, I also do not know which module to use, but if you found the
right one, copy it to your cgi-bin and use
BEGIN {
push(@INC,"cgi-bin");
}
use The_module_you_found;
in your script, which imports the path to your cgi-bin dir the @INC.
Yours Henri

Administrivia:
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.
