Message-Id: <3458228D.63B9B7DF@pangea.ca>
I have a CGI that is passed the values:
?ItemA-1=9&ItemB-1=55&ItemA-2=20&ItemB-2=45
Items with corresponding numbers need to be compared to each other, and
the numbers are always consecutive; so I say:
@ofKeys = keys(%in);
$HighestNumber = 0;
foreach $Key (@ofKeys) {
@ofKey = split (/-/, $Key);
if ($ofKey[1] gt $HighestNumber) {
$HighestNumber = $ofKey[1];
}
}
for ($i =1; $i <$HighestNumber; $i +=1) {
$keyA = "ItemA-$i";
$keyB = "ItemB-$i";
&Compare
}
The Compare sub contains:
if ($in{$keyA} gt $in{$keyB}) {
print "ItemA-$i is greater than ItemB-$i<BR>";
$difference = $in{$key1} - $in{$key2};
print "Difference : $difference";
}
else {
print "ItemB-$i is greater than or equal to ItemA-$i<BR>";
$difference = $in{$key2} - $in{$key1};
print "Difference : $difference";
}
It informs me that ItemA-1 is in fact greater than ItemB-1, and that the
difference is -46. This behavior is only exhibited when either of the
items do not contain the same amount of digits. For example 20 and 45
return the correct result. I dunno.
Thanks in advance.

this is a string compare, and yes "9" is greater than "55"
try ($in{$keyA} > $in{$keyB}) , because 55 > 9

you'll find that 2 gt 11, 200 gt 10000, but 44 is not gt 5

^^^^
Why are you using a string comparison for numeric values? Remember that
100 gt 99 -> FALSE
100 > 99 -> TRUE
You should look at p19 of the Camel for a summary.

You've got to be kidding. "man perl" and start reading. Actually, go
get Randal Schwartz's "Learning Perl" (man perlbook for the ISBN) and
start with it. We like helping people learn Perl, but we're not here to
do your work for you.
Use "print" for "echo". Here documents ("<<DONE" type thingies) would
make this more readable (true for both Perl and Bourne shell).

I am new to perl right now, so this may seem like a very simple issue.
I need to write a cgi script that creates a form on our web site that
someone can fill out, submit, and then the results sent in an email. The
email goes to several people so it must retain an easily readable
format:
question?
answer...
Easy to read question/answer format. At any rate, does anyone have some
guidance on how to accomplish this task or point me in the right
direction?
Thank you very much.

putting it in .login will work. I think your basic problem here might
be what you think of as "first logging in". Putting it in .cshrc will
cause it to be executed everytime you spawn a new shell (like, whenever you
open up a new window). .login calls it whenever you login (like, spawning
a new tty).

Which will work fine, if you have root access. This person may not.
But then, I'm getting in on the thread a little late, so this may have
already been covered.

24 lines above where that subroutine is given in the perlfunc man page
it says:
"If LOCK_NB is added to LOCK_SH or LOCK_EX then flock()
will return immediately rather than blocking waiting for the lock"
So, if someone calls this on a file that is already locked, then
it will block waiting for the lock.
: Does the

^^^^^^^
That's a pretty long time. Do you have one of those high-reliability
computers or something? ;-)
But yes, it will sit right there until it gets the lock.

Yes. Using non-blocking and a loop.
flock(MBOX, LOCK_EX | LOCK_UN); # non-blocking flock(), returns

: If it returns an error, what are the error messages?
35 lines above where that subroutine is given in the perlfunc man page
it says:
"Returns TRUE for success, FALSE on failure."
There may be error messages available, but they come from the
Operating System, not perl, so they differ...
: Similarly,
: - What happens if someone tries to open an Flocked file?
They open it just fine. The same as if it was not flock()ed.
: - What happens if someone tries to write to an Flocked file?
They write to it just fine. The same as if it was not flock()ed.
flock() is *advisory*. It is up to the programs that access the file
to cooperate in the locking...

Yes
: or is it necessary to unlock the file

Never unlock the file. Just close it.

While this works, it assumes that either
- every element in @array ends with a \n
- you don't care that everything gets jumbled
Sylvain,
if you want one element per line and you don't already have \n at the
end of each element in @array, the easiest way to do this is
print FILE join("\n", @array);
You can also play with $\ but I think that sort of awk voodoo is a bit
harder to maintain. Of course, it is your choice.

Sorry to followup my own post, but,that doesn't put a \n after the last
element. That should have been
print FILE join("\n", @array, '');

I've been trying to issue JavaScript document.write() statements from a Perl script,

I did print the <SCRIPT> tag, and because of JavaScript syntax checking, I know the
browser is parsing the JavaScript of the Perl-generated page, but document.write is
ignored.
For now, I've given up, and simply allowed non-JS browsers to see the button that
they can't click, but included some text telling them what to do ... Is that my only

On web page I have to show the list of files for download. After selecting
the file (click on the link or something) I have to write in a txt file the
username and a selected product. Files are on PASSWORD protected Ftp site.
I tried to do the following:
replace the direct link to the file with a link to a Perl script that
writes down the data in txt file, and redirects to the location of the
file:
print "Location: ftp://name.name/namefile.ext\n\n";
It works when I turn off the password protection on FTP site (NT IIS
Server). But If i put the protection i got the Anonymous Access Denied
response.
How can I send the username/password information within the script
(Location request), or all of it can be done in some other way.

Doesn't the standard perl5.004 package work for OS/2 too? The
README.os2 says (in the BUILD section)
Quick cycle of developers release may break the OS/2 build
time to time, looking into
http://www.perl.com/CPAN/ports/os2/ilyaz/
may indicate the latest release which was publicly
released by the maintainer. Note that the release may
include some additional patches to apply to the current
source of perl.
Hope this points you in the right direction.

I'm not familiar with Netware 4.11, but try to use the forum on Selena's
site. People who read these forums are actually the people who work
with Selena's tools. So you will probably find a better help there.
The pointer to forums from the Selena's cgi scripts page...
Hope that will help you...

Message-Id: <null>
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.
