Hi all,
I’m sorry if this has been asked before.
I just need to obtain a better understanding of CGI.pm
I have a script that outputs dynamic results information back to the web browser.
What I like to know is:-
How would I redirect the output to a new browser window?
I have tried looking around and I believe this is not as simple as it sounds.
I have viewed the CGI.pm help notes and see that this has a –target option but clearly stats that it does not work on Internet Explorer.
What I need to establish is:-
1, Is CGI.pm what I need?
2, Do I need to combined CGI.pm with some sort of JavaScript?
3, Is this type of thing limited to ether Netscape or Explorer and not both?
4, Is there any good resource I could look at for help with this?
I guess the simplest example I could give for what I am trying to achieve is:
#!/usr/bin/perl
print "Content-type: text/html\n\n\n";
print <<END; #### FROM HERE TO END IN NEW BROWSER WINDOW
<html>
<font color=RED>
hello World
</font>
</html>
END

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
