Message-Id: <40a64e8a_1@news.iprimus.com.au>
I am wondering if dynamic (multi-tiered dropdown/fold-out) menus are
possible to impliment using a cgi/perl script. A problem with CSS & large
sites is remembering to edit the menu on every page! I imagine that a
reference to a single perl script might simplify things.
If so, are there any sample code/tutorials, and what property or code can be
implimented to allow the display of a menu to appear above and across frame
boundaries.
Alternatively, can a perl script be set up so that it does not have to be
reloaded as the user browses from one page to another referencing the same
script?
Thanks in Advance...

Message-Id: <40a64712@news.victoria.tc.ca>
I wish to use perldoc to read a file formatted as a pod.
According to perldoc -h, I should be able to use -F to indicate the
argument is a filename, but this only seems to work some of the time.
$ perldoc -F ./pod.pod
Cannot find blib even in /home/malcolm/src/template/../../../../..
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at (eval 2) line 1.
...propagated at /usr/bin/perldoc line 165.
Most annoyingly, this seems to bite me exactly when I'm working on
unfinished perl code. Perldoc will happily find and format a pod format
file when I'm working in most any other directory that I'm not using for
perl code.
$ cp pod.pod ~
$ cd ~
$ perldoc pod.pod # don't even have to say it's a file
-document formats as expected-
So, what gives?
