in thread Using mysql with perl

Thanks, barrd! I saved your code as sql_test.cgi and ran it off the browser but I don't see any output. What could be wrong? Do I've to activate mysql or something?

    No problem, first off see rnahi's excellent reply/update above about setting up a username/password. And if you used your browser to activate the script then a blank page is what you would expect as the script is designed to be run from the command line... sorry, I should have pointed that out. It was for test purposes only to ensure that you could get "something" out of the MySQL DB.
