What about this:
use strict; use CGI; #Based upon the info found at: http://search.cpan.org/~lds/CGI.pm-3.01 +/CGI.pm#CREATING_A_SCROLLING_LIST my %database = ('Aaron Anderson' => 'The webmaster, blah blah', 'Someo +ne Else' => 'Don\'t know', 'Fred' => 'Flintstone!', 'Wilma' => 'Fred\ +'s wife', 'me' => 'A name I call myself'); my @list = keys %database; my $query = new CGI; if ($query->param('mylist')) { print $query->header, $query->start_html, $query->param('mylist'),' : ', $database{$query->param('mylist')}, $query->start_form, $query->submit('Try again'), $query->endform, $query->end_html; } else { print $query->header, $query->start_html, $query->start_form, $query->scrolling_list('mylist', \@list,['me'],2), $query->submit, $query->endform, $query->end_html; }

  • 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.
