CGI.pm comes with all recent distributions of Perl and DBD::MySQL
is available from ActiveState for installation using PPM.

Message-Id: <7nh852$3q9$1@nnrp1.deja.com>
For processing of command line parameters you can use Getopt:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use Getopt::Std; # or maybe Getopts::Std; sorry, don't have a
# Unix-Box here.
# getopt sets global vars beginning with "opt_"
# and then the name of the parameter: $opt_r
use vars qw($opt_r $opt_h opt_x);
getopts("r:hx:"); # r, h, x are your available options, if you
# specify r: the ":" means, that there should
# follow some input like ./bla -r myfile
Getopt does not check, if your parameters are set. So that should be
done by yourself. For further Information read the Manual for Getopt.

Is it a matter of opinion that people read from top to bottom?
I know of no culture that does otherwise.
Is it a matter of opinion that it's easier to comprehend a reply
when you have just been reminded of what the reply is about?
I thought not.
Is it a matter of opinion that people get peeved when they scroll
down a whole slew of quoted material for additional comments and
find that there aren't any?
Myself, I get mightily peeved.
Is it a matter of opinion that people post to usenet with the
intention to have others read what they write?
I don't know about you, but I want to be read.
Is it a matter of opinion that quoting a whole article to add just
a few lines is a waste of bandwidth and human resources?
I didn't think so.
Is it a matter of opinion that a usenet article is written by one
person, but read by many?
Well, alt.Michael-Rubenstein.moderated may be a counterexample.
The posting style you continue to preach but, I am glad to see
no longer practice, makes things easy for the poster, but hard
for the readers. I call that lazy and rude. Talk about insult.

It is a matter of opinion whether these things imply that
responses should come after quotes. This should be obvious from
the fact that some people disagree and do post responses first.

When did I ever post a response before the quote? When did I
ever preach for this practice? As far as I can recall, I have
done neither.
THe point I have been trying to make, obviously with no success,
is summarized in the last paragraph of the article to which you
are responding:
You don't have to convince me that this is a better way
to post. I always put the quote before the response or
interleave and prefer it in messages I read. The
difference is that I recognize that others who are
intelligent and well meaning may hold different opinions.
Apparently respect for the opinions of others is too advanced a
concept for comp.lang.perl.misc.
This will be my last post here for a while. I can only take the
intolerance of this newsgroup in small doses and I've had enough.

This proves nothing but the fact that some posters are lazy and
inconsiderate. Hardly news.

If you never misplaced your reply before the quoted material
I apologize. It certainly looks like you are defending the
practice as a viable alternative. It isn't. It's against
common sense. It may not be totally obvious, but it's against
common sense nonetheless.

Respect for the opinions of others is one thing. Condoning bad

Subject: File Uploading
Message-Id: <932988592.9965.0.nnrp-04.d4f07397@news.demon.co.uk>
Hiya,
I'm uploading a file to a perl script using a multipart form.
All seems fine to a point. I split the items according to boundaries and
manage to put standard text/select/radio fields into an associative array
as per usual without any problems.
However.... Once i have isolated the file data along with its header
information i'm not sure how to parse it. I've tried a few sensible guesses
and always seem to have a character or two too many when i write the file to
my server.
So, what i'm asking is if anybody can provide me of a description of what
exactly is contained within the boundaries of a "file" input and how to
parse it. Any help would be much appreciated.
I'm afraid my provider will not allow me to use CGI.pm or CGI_lib.pl so its
gotta be straight perl i'm afraid
Cheers
Darren

Subject: Re: frames
Message-Id: <7nh9f5$4hc$1@nnrp1.deja.com>
Yes. And its very easy, also if you want your script to generate the
content for all your frames. Your HTML-Source would be:
<frameset 50%,50%>
<frame src=/cgi-bin/yourcgi.cgi?f1 name=frame1>
<frame src=/cgi-bin/yourcgi.cgi?f2 name=frame1>
</frameset>
Your Perl script could look like this:
#!/usr/bin/perl
if ($ARGV[0] eq 'f1') {
# build frame1
print "content-type: text/html\n\n";
..
}
elsif ($ARGV[0] eq 'f2') {
#build frame2
print "content-type: text/html\n\n";
..
}
else {
# error
}
Of course you can also let your CGI script generate the main page which
defines your framesets (I wrote a script which, if it's called without
parameters - generates the main page, and is called with parameters
from each frame tag and then generates the content of the frames.)

Message-Id: <379C4AFA.89A7F8AB@dexia.be>
Hello,
I have some problems using the perl module Mail::Mailer.
This comes with MailTools-1.13.
I compiled it on my unix system. (AIX 4.2.1).
I did not get any error messages when compiling.
I tried a demo script that I got from "The Perl Journal"'s web site.
Script :
----------
#!/usr/bin/perl5 -w
# mail_mailer.pl - sample mail sending routine using Mail::Mailer
use strict;
use lib "/home/sy064/perl/modules/lib";
use Mail::Mailer;
my $mailer = new Mail::Mailer 'smtp';
# Hash keys are headers in the outgoing mail
$mailer->open({To => 'sy064',
From => 'sy064',
Subject => 'Some test mail'});
print $mailer "Hi! This is some test mail. Boring, huh? :-)\n";
print $mailer "This was done using Mail:Mailer\n";
$mailer->close;
When I run the script I get following error's :
--------------------------------------------------------------
mailhub@spom113_tr0:/home/sy064/perl/scripts> mail_mailer_smailer.tvd.pl

After this the script stays 'hung' and I abandon it using ctrl-C.
Using Net::smtp to send mail works.

Using Mail::Mailer 'test' gives following output :

Sure but I can't see that THAT could be a problem. Are you using Win/Dos syntax

I have ActivePerl 518, PWS as well as Apache 1.3.6 everything works fine.

I'll tell you why, using virtual servers offers you the option to host
numerous sites with a single IP address, as my domain name IP address is
also the IP address of the company who hosts my website. This might be your
problem?

I'll reexamine the RFC's (which I read along time ago) and submit a bugreport.
Opps. That'll teach me to open my mouth...

Hi!
Maybe i'm just too dumb to read, but i failed to find
a solution to the follwing problem in any book so i
have to ask the list:
I am working on AIX 4.x with Perl5.005_02 and want
to monitor established connections on a maschine via perl.
Up to now we do it using a ksh script which calls
netstat -nf inet
and grep to get the tcp-connections with the state ESTABLISHED.
This solution is rather sluggish with many connections,
so i want to try using perl.
I would appreciate, if anyone could point me to a solution
or to a module.
Thanx in advance,

You can use this script to run netstat from perl:
!/usr/bin/perl
open (NET," netstat -n inet |");
while ($res=<NET>)
{
print "$res";
}
close NSL;
This will print all data from netstat.

Ahh, you said "and terminate displaying to the STDOUT"
so... do it:
close STDOUT;

Subject: Testing MSQL/Perl scripts at home with MS Access/Activestate Perl
Message-Id: <379C2690.9162F24B@analog.com>
I have a pc that has windows 98 and samba server instlled on it. I have
downloaded the activestate bin version of perl. I need to develop perl
CGI scipts at home that I will upload to my ISP. My ISP runs on a unix
box. ISP recommends Perl to interface to MSQL. I intend to write Perl
scripts that will query a MSQL data base from a HTML form and return
results to client. Is ther any way that I can test the perl scripts at
home with MS Access so that All I have to do is to make a slight change
to the scripts when being uploaded to ISP?
PS: I am having difficulty in installing MSQL/DBI/DBD modules into
activestate perl package manager. Is there a Bin perl application that
runs on windows98 and has all the modules that I need pre installed??
regards
Paul.

download the zip, extract it and use PPM as in the activestate

If your ISP is using Unix, why don't you go for a dual booting option and
install linux? The differences between the Win32 port and the Unix/Linux
port isn't generally significant (although someone will put me right) but at
least you can be certain the script will run when you upload it.
