RE: CGI and variables? What´s the problem

Should be as simple as:

use CGI;
$co =3D new CGI;

## Here I grab the info from the form field named "date"
## and assign it to the variable $data

my $data =3D $co->param('date');

Subject: CGI and variables? What=B4s the problem?


Hi guys... I=B4d like to ask you a question. Some of you might have
encountered something like this... I=B4m creating a web interface using =
CGI
library so that the user enter a data in the textfield, i put these =
values
into some variables and use them in the system... for example... I type
the new date and the script executes the date command with that value
typed in the textfield... but I just can=B4t get it done... If I give =
fixed
value to the variable, it works fine... but in the same script of the =
CGI,
it doesn=B4t...
Please, help me!

Thanks!
