I have been instructed to expand on the website of my company, which uses perl scripts for the password protected area. I have little Perl experience. The following code is a script I wrote to add a user to database(which is actually just a text file). For some reason it won't write to text file. It is basically pulling a company code and password off of an HTML document and writing to a text file. Does anybody have any idea?
$UserDB = "datahere/UserDB.txt";
print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";
# Parse Form Contents
&parse_form;
# Add to user database
&add_db;
# display results
&results;
sub parse_form {
if ($ENV{'REQUEST_METHOD'} eq 'GET') {
# Split the name-value pairs
@pairs = split(/&/, $ENV{'QUERY_STRING'});
}
elsif ($ENV{'REQUEST_METHOD'} eq 'POST') {
# Get the input
read(STDIN, $buffer, $ENV{'CONTENT_LENGTH'});
# Split the name-value pairs
@pairs = split(/&/, $buffer);
}
foreach $pair (@pairs) {
($name, $value) = split(/=/, $pair);
$value =~ tr/+/ /;
$value =~ s/%([a-fA-F0-9][a-fA-F0-9])/pack("C", hex($1))/e
+g;
$Form{$name} = $value;
}
}
sub add_db {
open (FILE,">>$UserDB");
print FILE "$Form{'companycode'}\t";
print FILE "$Form{'password'}\t";
print FILE "\t\n";
close(FILE);
}
sub results {
print "<html>";
print "<p>User Is Added</p>";
print "</html>";
}
