in reply to Authentication and CGI

Hi Chris. .htaccess is a very good method but if you would like a code sample, I would process the form data with CGI qw(:standard ) then just analyze each field name with param("name") or param("password"). To check for a blank field, I would use print redirect("/file.html") unless param("name"); This way, the user will be redirected if they have neglected to input the requested info. -DigitalKitty
