Re^4: How to convert a script from C to Perl?

Why would that rule out Javascript? Anything that runs on the client side should be fine.

If you follow the thread back, you'll see that I submitted the question to this site because I was originally intent on converting the script to Perl. But now I'm pretty sure that Javascript is the way to go. It's really just a form validation problem.

I usually surf with Javascript disabled, so any validation you want should be repeated on the server side. But if the "Validation" is mostly for user convenience, leaving it out when Javascript is unavailable is likely acceptable.	[reply]

"Anything that runs on the client side should be fine." Unless the client has JavaScript disabled :) It seems ig already converted it to perl to get you started.	[reply]
