in reply to Re^3: displaying html file in the browser using perl
in thread displaying html file in the browser using perl

Hiya, I have tried your code. But i guess the problem is i have also comments in the page like <!-- start of the page -->. it tries to think start of the page is the file and fails . so something which specifically looks for include file rather than looking for comments in the page. I still think my reg expression is not right.At the moment its 
$html =~ s{<#include file="([^"]+)"}{&add_template($1)}gei;

I would really appreciate any help on this . Many Thanks,

      Thank you so much for your help. It seems to work they way it should and only looks for include file. But, still doesn't display the included file when i read aa.html on the browser. I have double checked the path and have tried to print only the included file and it does print the file individually. When i try to read with aa.html it just kind of ignores and doesn't print the included file. I have no idea what i am missing now. Many Thanks, T

        When "running from the browser", you need to use absolute path names. Instead of trying to open somefolder/cc.html, you will have to use /home/tsdesai/somefolder/cc.html for example.
