I think you mean form

I think you mean form parameters correct me if I'm wrong

#!C:\Perl\bin\perl.exe -w
use strict;
use CGI ':standard';

#Set up some variables
my($input1, $input2, $input3);

#Get param values
my $input1 = param('formInput1'); #Where formInput1 is the name of the form field
my $input2 = param('formInput2');
my $input3 = param('formInput3');

print "$input1";
print "$input2";
print "$input3";

Passing variables to PERL CGI

mralbert — Wed, 27 Feb 2008 05:15:26 -0800

What is the PERL code that allows a PERL CGI to receive variables
from an HTTP form? I think I have the HTTP code that sends the variable.

I found the below code on the Internet, but they stop my CGI program
from executing:

require "cgi-lib.pl";
&ReadParse(*input);
$input{'myfield'};

Is there a good web page that answers this question?

Thank you,

Mark
