No, it's not. Since \s+ is greedy, it will eat to the 'real' end of the
line if it can; the $ is simply a zero-width assertion that the match does
in fact end at the end of the line or just before a newline at the end of
the line.
: Also, since the docs state that "$" and

: sequence?
No, you're fine. Notice that your statement above is a bit misleading,
since newline *is* a character. $ will match *either* at the real end of
line, or just before a terminal newline (or before or after any newline,
if /m is in effect). Any preceding matching occurs independently up to
the $, which simply checks to see if the positional assertion is met; if
not, backtracking or a match failure occur.

Perl's functions are documented in perlfunc.
perldoc perlfunc
Perhaps you'll find something there that will allow you to setpriority
of a process.
Good luck with it!

That's the most stupid thing I've heard all week. Congratulations.
After the incident with my neighbor's kid, the green apples and the
dog turd on Monday [long but funny story omitted] it took a lot for
you to get that honor.
If you're learning Perl, what the hell do you want to be bogged
down in the nitty-gritty of CGI's implemenation? Actually, if you're
just learning perl it's very stupid of you to be messing with CGI's
guts anyways. There's no chance in hell you'll get it right.
I know Perl fairly well, and it'd take me a week or four to write a
CGI library that worked reasonably as well as the standard one.
Even then, I wouldn't get it right the first time.
</flame>
Judging by your bug, you seriously misunderstand how http cookies
work. The cookie is PART OF THE HEADER. Once the header is out, you
can't go back and do a cookie.
Use the module -- it's easy. You're not going to get CGI right
without it. All the world needs is another bad CGI library. If you
want to watch the cookie being set, run your program interactively.

Why is it that when I ask a very specific question, with a very specific
qualifier (no CGI.pm) that people tell me to use CGI.pm, and that
my whole approach is wrong anyway.
THAT WAS NOT THE QUESTION!!!
If I wanted to know your opinion on what your preferred method
of learning a programming language is, I would have said so!
And if I clearly state that I don't want to use CGI.pm, then
please don't give me a sales pitch for CGI.pm!

Well, it's just that I don't quite understand what the Common Gateway
Interface has to do with learning Perl.
People suggested to use CGI.pm to free you from the burden of learning CGI
and focussing on learning Perl instead (because that is what you were asking
for in the first place).
If you insist on writing CGI programs then maybe you should learn CGI
programming in a familiar programming language first and only as a second
step port your programs to Perl. This way you don't have to deal with two
complicated tasks simultaneously, where you never know if a problem is
caused by your inexperience in Perl, your inexperience in CGI, or the
interaction of the two.

: I'm currently using this :

The time argument is the default, so specifying it is redundant (though

:
: but I don't know what ++ and += really do
See 'perldoc perlop'. Briefly, ++ increments its argument (adds one to
it), and += adds its left and right arguments and stores the result back
into the left argument (so the second line above is equivalent to
'$d_date[5] = $d_date[5] + 1900;'.
But seriously, read perlop. And get a good introductory book, like
_Learning Perl_ ("The Llama").
: + is defined as a model searching character, ok ?
Perl makes heavy use of punctuation and operator characters; they often
mean different things in different places. '+' is a great example. It is
a repetition indicator inside regexes, but ordinary addition in an
expression. And '++' is different from '+'.
: But what means ++ applied to the month element only and not to hours,
: minutes and seconds?
This is done because the month value is returned as a number 0-11 (for
convenience in using it as an index into a zero-based array of month
names). To use it as a standard month number (e.g. 7=July), you must add
one to it.
: On the other way, what means += applied to the year element ?
The year value returned is the current year minus 1900, so you must add
1900 to get the actual year value. See 'perldoc -f localtime'.

Message-Id: <8F4CD408Ekevinvcconceptscom@24.2.68.78>
When I attempt to process a script, i get the following error in my
browser:
The specified CGI application misbehaved by not returning a complete set of
HTTP headers. The headers it did return are:
Died at D:\root\deadnut\dedicatednutrition.com\www\cgi-
bin\mailinglist\subscribe.pl line 638.
And at line 638 of the script, I see the line:
Win32::Process::Create($ProcessObj, $mailprog, "Blat $tempfile\\tempfile -t
$lines -s \"$INPUT{'mail_subject'}\" -i \"$list_mail ($list_name)\" -f
\"$list_mail\" ", 0, DETACHED_PROCESS, ".")|| die ;
which appears to be what calls blatmail...
This is on an NT server.
the values i think you might need are defined here:
$mailprog = 'D:/winnt/system32';
$tempfile = "D:/root/deadnut/dedicatednutrition.com/db";
Any help would be appreciated.

I am halfway into getting a shopping cart system to work

However, apparently my web site host should have a "perl

I telephoned my host and they don't seem to know much

myself? Where would I get an interpreter from?

You can get one from www.perl.com
Also, take a look at perlfaq8: How do I keep my own module/library
directory?
Also, wonder aloud why your host doesn't know much about installing Perl.

Gee (Abigail) Thanks for nothing!! I had to spend half a day to come up
with the solution - send java code back through the html code that's inside
my PERL SCRIPT! What do you mean "what's this got to do with Perl?" DUH -
I'm writing a COBOL program, but I think I'll ask the PERL group if they
have ever had to write to a new window?!? Get a life - if you're not going
to help somebody (who obviously needs help or they wouldn't be asking) then
don't waste your time being sarcastic!

Cool! Great to hear you fixed the java code (or is it Javascript? I'm so
bad at that web stuff).

Still, the fact that you are using Perl (that's a 'P' followed by 'erl',
and it ain't spelled with 4 capitals) is irrelevant. Had you written it
in Cobol, you still would have used the same solution.
Does that mean you should have asked it in a Cobol group? Of course not.
You wouldn't ask your car dealer which groceries to buy either; just
because you take the groceries home in a Honda doesn't mean it has any
relevancy on groceries.
And stop posting in Jeopardy style. It makes lizards look smarter than you.

I even download.. the DBI.pm 1.13.1 from CPAN
and extracted.. 'perl MakeFile.PL' doesn't work..
It gives some experimental threading warning..
and then gives this.. gui error again..about illegal operation..

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.
| NOTE: The mail to news gateway, and thus the ability to submit articles
| through this service to the newsgroup, has been removed. I do not have
| time to individually vet each article to make sure that someone isn't
| abusing the service, and I no longer have any desire to waste my time
| dealing with the campus admins when some fool complains to them about an
| article that has come through the gateway instead of complaining
| to the source.
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.
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.
