Re: perl form

in reply to perl form

I think you'd be better reorganising this. Formcgi.pl doesn't need to exist at all - this could simply be a static HTML form, as all it does is pass parameters, with no dynamic generation necessary. Then you could simply add the code in "getpart.pl" into "addrecord.pl" (as a GetPartNumber subroutine or something similar), return the value and write out to the db in one fell swoop.

As stated above though, CGI.pm would be of *great* help to you here, especially in the parsing of the parameters.

Cheers, Ben.
