I have an array of possible values for the dropdown,
Is it
With the following:
use CGI;
$query = new CGI;
print $query->startform({-action => "foo.cgi", -method => "post"});

I have a second question as well. I would like to create a form field that is a drop down menu.
print $query->popup_menu({-name => "foo", -values => ["bar", "baz", "bat"]});I have an array of possible values for the dropdown,
@values. However, doing -values => $values doesn't seem to work, so how exactly can I do it? Is it @values or am I just completely way off base? Gah! Dani the Computer Science Gal
PS ... Yes, I know that I could just use a print statement to write out
<input type="hidden" ... but I was wondering if there was some CGI.pm shortcut. Dani the Computer Science Gal
