in reply to HTML::Template with checkbox

I agree with choroba, your issue is not a Perl one. I would add a value to each of your check boxes and use the file name, this way when you click on a check box, the file name will be the returned value. If you use a unique name for each check box then the files will be returned as individual parameters. If you use the same name then the file names will be returned using a single parameter. Use CGI.pm to sort out the parameters. If you go the same name route, CGI.pm will return all of the filenames in a single array....
<td><input type="checkbox" name="field" <TMPL_VAR NAME="check"> value= +"<TMPL_VAR NAME ="filename">"

    Could you show me how to get the the names of checkbox or filenames with your added value="<TMPL_VAR NAME ="filename">"

        I used it and it did not return any values

        @files = $q->param("field");

        There is no values in @files.

        I feel very frustrated.
