I’m using the cgi-lib.pl module which works fine.
(I know I should be using CGI, but not right now)
The flat file database has content in this form:
number:name:email
I want to be able to find and display on the screen, MULTIPLE matches on ANY of the above data fields.
I will be using a DIFFERENT html form for EACH field data type.
I can return any ONE line back to a form on the screen, but I need to be able to view ALL of the results for a given search on the same screen with EACH result on it’s OWN form…
For example: if the name “John” has 5 entries in
the database on DIFFERENT lines, then I want EACH of John’s results displayed INDIVIDUALLY on the screen on 5 different forms.
I also need a way to be able to temporarily store ALL the data on the SAME line (maybe with an array??), and be able to reference the line for future use, most likely to delete or change the line.
Please be as specific as possible. I’m just kinda getting the hang of Perl. 🙂
Thanks,cobes…
