Re: Inserting javascript into perl script

[Louis_Wu]

Are you asking how to use CGI to transmit a webpage which contains Javascript? If so, use CGI as you normally would for your page, and have the JS embedded in the HTML you send.

That seems too obvious, I must be missing something. Could you give some more details and some code you've tried?

It's not an html page, it's a .pl script, with html code near the end. Was just wondering if javascript needs print statements in front of it below the http header.. i'm assuming i don't need print statements if it's placed above the http header. -Lisa

Your absoltely right. The client web browser will utilize ESP::ThoughtTransfer to connect to the web server, download the script, look through it, find all the javascript code and magically execute it.
