How would I change a script from using the included "@referers" to a separate file using "require" to read it? 

@referers = ('www.gate.net/~earthdes',
         'file:/guest.htm',
         'http://www.jamilin.com/');

# Check Referring URL
&check_url;

sub check_url {

   if ($ENV{'HTTP_REFERER'}) {
      foreach $referer (@referers) {
         if ($ENV{'HTTP_REFERER'} =~ /$referer/i) {
            $check_referer = '1';
        last;
         }
      }
   }
   else {
      $check_referer = '1';
   }

   if ($check_referer != 1) {
      &error('bad_referer');
   }
}

Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post, it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":


  • Posts are HTML formatted. Put <p> </p> tags around your paragraphs. Put <code> </code> tags around your code and data!
  • Titles consisting of a single word are discouraged, and in most cases are disallowed outright.
  • Read Where should I post X? if you're not absolutely sure you're posting in the right place.
