Ken, Take it easy. I stressed on this problem too and it took me time to overcome this one. You say it came from Perl How To. Mine is called CGI How To. The problems definitely are the same, so it must be same book, different packaging. Use those scripts I sent you and see if you can get it to run. If we can get it to run we can clean it up later. alan :) At 12:38 AM -0500 6/23/99, ken towry wrote: >I know it may seem as if i'm just copying the scripts from the CD or >book, and i am, in a process to learn perl as well as studying the >scripts. >I've got a chalkboard above me i'm writing important stuff on and doing >the best i can to retain the information i'm learning.
