Anonymous Monk has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
If I have a file on my Windows NT called "bas.txt" with contents of:
wordOne
wordTwo
wordThree
Then I would just want to print this on a web page like this:
wordOne
wordTwo
wordThree
I can make a page that prints out something but how would I get the contents of a file and print it out on a web page? Here is my attempt and the output:
wordOne
wordTwo
wordThree
Then I would just want to print this on a web page like this:
wordOne
wordTwo
wordThree
I can make a page that prints out something but how would I get the contents of a file and print it out on a web page? Here is my attempt and the output:
The output from this:use strict; my $path = "/web/webpage.html"; my $myfile = "/perl/bin/bas.txt"; open FIL, "$myfile" || die "cant open: $!\n"; open OUT, ">$path" || die "Can't open $path for writing: $!\n"; print OUT <<"EOF"; <html> <head> <title>Title</title> </head> <body> Okay this prints out.<br> $myfile </body> </html> EOF close OUT || die "Can't close filehandle: $!\n"; close FIL || die "no cant close: $!\n";
I need the output to be the contents of the file not the path name, so I am doing something wrong. The output should be:Okay this prints out. /perl/bin/bas.txt
Please advise what I need to change or do to make this work???Okay this prints out. wordOne wordTwo wordThree
