Hi all,
I am learning perl , I just wonder if I have a flat file.

record.txt

Toyota|California||||| Toyota|California||||| Toyota|Arizona||||| Toyota|Nevada||||| Toyota|Florida||||| Honda|California||||| Honda|Florida||||| Honda|Arizona|||||
How we write a code to have a result is:
MADE CALIFORINA ARIZONA NEVADA FLORIDA TOTAL ==== ========== ======= ====== ======= ===== Toyota 2 1 1 1 5 Honda 1 1 0 1 3
I can only do:
MADE TOTAL ==== ===== Toyota 5 Honda 3
Here are some of my code:
#!/opt/WWW/tools/perl5/perl #summarize.cgi open (DATA,"record.txt") || die ("Can't Open data File \n"); @data=<DATA>; close DATA; foreach $line (@data) { ($made, $state, $tmp , $tmp, $tmp, $tmp)=split(/\|/,$line); if ($made) { $count{$made}++; } if ($state) { $countstate{$state}++; } } &header_response; $x=0; foreach $made (keys %count) { $x++; print "<TR ><TD>$x</TD><TD><b>$made&nbsp;</b></TD><TD>$count{$made} +&nbsp;</TD></TR> \n"; } &close_response; &log_response; $z=0; foreach $LogOp (keys %countstate) { $z++; print "<TR ><TD>$z</TD><TD><b>$state&nbsp;</b></TD><TD>$countstate +{$state}&nbsp;</TD></TR> \n"; } &footer_response;
Can you help me to solve this problem ?

Thank you very much
