in reply to How to pass form data to a onclick=javascript:new.window perl script

http://xww.test.com/cgi-bin/cgiwrap/rootcgi/create_data.pl is just a plain request, no query is passed here. Then the URL would be of the form http://xww.test.com/cgi-bin/cgiwrap/rootcgi/create_data.pl?key=value;key=value.

So, you either have to print that when creating the page, or, if this someway has to be done on the fly, you'd need to find yourself a javascriptmonks site, as the latter option would be a javascript problem, not a Perl problem.

    Hi Abigail-II

    So if I do something like:

    http://xww.test.com/cgi-bin/cgiwrap/rootcgi/create_data.pl?$front_page
+->param('machine_name');$front_page->param('reason')

    [download]

    Do you think that that may pass the parameter's selected by the user, I'm sure those would be set at the point where the user clicks the submit button?

    Thanks

      Oops, I made a booboo, the key=value pair, the url would be

      http://xww.test.com/cgi-bin/cgiwrap/rootcgi/create_data.pl?machine_nam
+e=$front_page->param('machine_name');reason=$front_page->param('reaso
+n')

      [download]
      Do you think this may work?

      Thanks
