Page traversing in EmbPerl

jonhy has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hi!! I have 10 html pages. I want to write a EmpPerl script in which there should be two buttons called next page & previous page to show these pages in a sequence in a browser i.e whenever I click next the page that is next to the current page will be displayed & similarly when the previous button is clicked the page previous to current page will be displayed. The URLs of these 10 pages are stored in an array. Could anyone give me a fair idea of how to do this.. Hitesh.

Sure! `print "<a href='next.pl'><img src='button.jpg'></a>"` [download] (This is known as a pointless answer to an overly vague question. If you want an actual, real answer, you're going to have to be just a teensy tiny bit more specific. Start by stating, in english and briefly, the exact problem you are trying to solve. Next state what you have tried so far and what has or hasn't worked. Then you'll get a lovely answer.)	[reply] [d/l]

Hai, From your writing this is wat i understood. U have some set of datas which u want to show in different pages. The pages should be traversed without any break in continuity. I have gone thr the Emperl help page at this link. In that link i found the following content.. `Embperl facilitates embedding Perl code into HTML/XML or other text do +cuments. Perl code is evaluated at the server side and the result is +sent to the browser. All available Perl modules can be used without a +ny restriction.` [download] If embperl supports installing external modules u can use HTML::Pager, which is a perfect pagination tool. Try this Good Luck Prasanna.k	[reply] [d/l]
