Hi guys,I have a problem right here which I tried to solve but can't.I have to solve this before I can proceed further. Hope u guys can help me. In my first perl script,file1.pl,I put 

foreach $filename(@latest)
    {
      if (-f $filename)
      {
        print "<input type=checkbox name=$filename value=1>";
        open FILE, "$filename" or die "Cannot open:$!\n";
        while(<FILE>)
        { #process the file
         }
        close FILE;
      }

so,how I want to make,when the user click the submit button,if the checkbox is checked,then the $filename will be print out at the next perl script that is called,which is file2.pl.If I already put the @latest array inside file2.pl,then it should be no problem.But how if there is no @latest in the file2.pl?I nearly got it,but it only print the last $filename that I checked,not all that I checked.Maybe I could put all the $filename that been checked inside an array such as @selected after the user click the submit button.How to do that? thanks for your concern.
