Hi monks, i was wondering either is it possible to pass and use other file script and this is my code

if($a == 3){print "checked";}

It might be possible to set variables in a different script that you read via do, require or use. It is not possible with lexical variables (those declared with my), though. Also, your use of the work "page" seems to indicate you are programming for CGI. To share variables between pages, use hidden fields or sessions. لսႽ† ᥲᥒ⚪⟊Ⴙᘓᖇ Ꮅᘓᖇ⎱ Ⴙᥲ𝇋ƙᘓᖇ	[reply]

There are only "processes", and perl variables don't get shared between processes, see perlintro, Re: Run Subroutine of a class as a background process using Win32::Process, perlipc, system, @ARGV, Process (computing)/Inter-process communication	[reply]
