I've been trying to get this program to load. You see, it simply takes in the user's information, i.e. the name of the file. It then parses that and puts it into a template. The only problem is that I can't seem to get the template to work right. Does my code look all right? I think the problem is at the end of the code.
#!/usr/bin/perl -w use strict; my $video_info; # Loads the CGI Module use CGI; # creates a new CGI object my $page = new CGI; # This will print a standard HTML header print $page->header; # Grab a named CGI parameter my $value = $page->param("video"); #Open up the file that contains the review of the video open(SEE, "../$value"); ###The Shtick for the name in the Title Bar #split up the variable $value ($Directory, $File) = split(/\//, $value); #Take the information from the split and split it up a little bit more ($Name, $Extension) = split(/\./, $File); #More splitting @Words = split(/_/, $Name); #Join the formation from the previous split and make it useful $Title = join(' ', @Words); #Save the file to an array @video_info = <SEE>; #Now print out lots of HyperText Mark-up Language using # HTML::Template my $template = HTML::Template->new(filename => '../Template/my.tmpl'); $template->param(info => @video_info); print $template->output; exit;
