Hi all

 

Bit of a newbie to the list, in fact a relatively newbie to perl.

 

Whilst I struggle away to create an understanding of perl for myself I
have encountered an issue which I presume a lot of you will be able to
solve with you eyes closed

 

I am trying develop an interface in which users can interrogate our
backup systems to request data they would like to be restored.

 

I have managed to get as far generating file lists into checkbox groups
for selection, my question now is, what would be the best way once
submitted of getting all the values of the selected checkboxes in order
for me to then create a mail to fire off to a team to acrry out the
restore.

 

I have tried printing all parameters in the subroutine that is called
when the submit(-name=>'Submit_selection') is defined however the only
parameter I get back is the actual "Submit_selection", presumably
because these are local to the subroutine ?

 

Can anyone point me in the right direction

 

Appreciated

 

Dave

 

The code I have so far:

 

print start_html(-title=>'NCG UK Restore
Portal',-style=>{'src'=>"$style"}),

      h1({-align=>'center'},'NCG UK Restore portal'),

      h3({-align=>'center'},'NCG UK Technical Search Results'),

      pre,

      'The following entries have been found based upon your search
criteria',

      p,

      'Please select the entries you require ',

      '                                      ',

      p,

      br;

      if ($host_tech_file_list) {

          print h4({-align=>'left'},"Master Server: $master"),

                 '                                      ',

                 "\n",

          table;

          &host_technical_files_to_checkbox;

          print table;

         }

print start_form,

      pre,

         '     ',

      br,

      submit(-name=>'Submit_selection'),

      end_form;

}

 

sub   host_technical_files_to_checkbox {

           foreach $host_tech_file_list_part (@host_tech_file_list_part)
{

                 $host_tech_file_list_part =~ s/\s+$//;

           chop $host_tech_file_list_part;

           if ( $host_tech_file_list_part =~ /\/$/) {

           print start_Tr({ -bgcolor => "#F0F8FF"}), start_td,
'Directory  ',end_td , start_td,

                 checkbox_group(-name=>'host_tech_file_selection',

                                -value=>"$host_tech_file_list_part"),

                 "\n",

                 br,

                 end_td, end_Tr;

                         }

           else {

           print start_Tr({ -bgcolor => "#FFFFFF" }), start_td,
'File',end_td , start_td,

                  checkbox_group(-name=>'host_tech_file_selection',

                                -value=>"$host_tech_file_list_part"),

                 "\n",

                   br,

                 end_td, end_Tr;

 

                         }

 

      }

}
