Hi All,
Need help on Perl for I am very new to this. The current application will send a fixed variables from browser to the Perl program. This Perl program will get all these values and store it in a directory. So now I need to make the program to accept unlimited variables. Actually the variables comes from an XML file.

Example: Need to send send ABC.XML to http://qwerty/cgi-bin/test.pl using post method: This is the current Perl program:

&ReadParse;

$logfile = "/xyzroot/log/123log.txt";
$allowed_ip = "";
$remote_ip = $ENV{'REMOTE_IP'};
##$targetDirectory = "http://qwerty/plm/recv";
$targetDirectory = "/xyzroot/plm/recv";
$backupDirectory = "/main/BACKUP";

$Sender = $in{'Sender'}; *
$Receiver = $in{'Receiver'}; *
$TrackId = $in{'TrackId'}; *
$Message = $in{'XMLMessage'}; *

$targetFile = $targetDirectory . "/$Sender-" . $TrackId . ".xml";
$backupFile = $backupDirectory . "/$Sender-" . $TrackId . ".xml";

## $targetInfo = $targetDirectory . "/$Sender-" . $TrackId . ".xrf";

$timestamp = ctime();

open(LOGF, ">>$logfile") || die "\nError opening $logfile\n";
printf LOGF "\n************************************************ \n";
printf LOGF "Sender : $Sender\n";
printf LOGF "Receiver : $Receiver\n";
printf LOGF "Track ID : $TrackId\n";
printf LOGF "TimeStamp : $timestamp\n";
printf LOGF "Main Directory Filename : $targetFile\n";
close(LOGF);

##open(INFFILE, ">$targetInfo") || die "\nError opening $targetInfo\n";
##print INFFILE "$Sender\n";
##print INFFILE "$Receiver\n";
##print INFFILE "$TrackId\n";
##print INFFILE "$targetFile\n";
##close(INFFILE);

open(EDIFILE, ">$targetFile") || die "\nError opening $targetFile\n";
print EDIFILE "$Message";
close(EDIFILE);

open(EDIFILE, ">$backupFile") || die "\nError opening $backupFile\n";
print EDIFILE "$EDIMessage";
close(EDIFILE);

print "Content-Type: text/html", "\n\n";
print "Message number : $TrackId has been submitted to PLM";

1;


sub ReadParse {
local (*in) = @_ if @_;
local ($i, $key, $val);

if ( $ENV{'REQUEST_METHOD'} eq "GET" ) {
$in = $ENV{'QUERY_STRING'};
} elsif ($ENV{'REQUEST_METHOD'} eq "POST") {
read(STDIN,$in,$ENV{'CONTENT_LENGTH'});
}
else {
# Added for command line debugging
# Supply name/value form data as a command line argument
# Format: name1=value1\&name2=value2\&...
# (need to escape & for shell)
# Find the first argument that's not a switch (-)
$in = ( grep( !/^-/, @ARGV )) [0];
$in =~ s/\\&/&/g;
}


@in = split(/&/,$in);


p/s: I need to make the $Message = $in{'XMLMessage'} to accept more than one value. At the moment, i can only assign one XML Message : <Test>hello hello everyone</Test>. Or how can i accept one XML file in Perl?

Hope someone can help me out in this...Thanks...

Have you tried XML::Simple? I like it. http://search.cpan.org/~grantm/XML-...b/XML/Simple.pm
