I can get variables from an html page into my perl cgi script just fine, but I want to process these variables (also works), and pass them to another cgi script. I'm not sure how though.
I've tried to set up a new <form> inside of my perl script to act as a pseudo-html page to pass into the next script, but to no avail.
Here is a sample that illustrates what I'm trying to do:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use CGI ':standard';
$q=$ENV{QUERY_STRING};
if ($q =~ /x=(\d+)/) {$x=$1}
if ($q =~ /y=(\d+)/) {$y=$1}
$z=$x * $y;
print <<EOT;
Content-type: text/html\n\n
The product of $x and $y is $z <p>
EOT
print <<EOT;
<p><p>
This is where I'm trying to pass back $z to another cgi script.
<form action="http://localhost/cgi-bin/test2.cgi">
<input name="z">
<input type="submit" value="submit">
</form>
EOT
exit;Thanks!
