Thanks for the reply. ( Am replying back after a long time, sorry about that )
Here is what am trying to achieve.
Using a "submit" button, everything works correctly. But I would like to achieve the same just by clicking any of the options in "pop_up" menu using a java script.
I tried several other forms as posted above but I could not get none of them to work for my case ( I know I missed something very badly )
Could you please help me with that ?
This is just a quick code that I wrote to demonstrate what am trying to do and what is the problem in doing so. There are so many mistakes that are unrelated to the post, please ignore them.
I need to transform this small javascript into a perl. So then when I need to use it I can call $something, instead of using this javascript.
Could someone help me archive this? (9 Replies)

cgi::formbuilder::source::yaml
CGI::FormBuilder::Source::YAML(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation CGI::FormBuilder::Source::YAML(3pm)NAME
CGI::FormBuilder::Source::YAML - Initialize FormBuilder from YAML file
SYNOPSIS
use CGI::FormBuilder;
my $form = CGI::FormBuilder->new(
source => {
source => 'form.fb',
type => 'YAML',
},
);
my $lname = $form->field('lname'); # like normal
DESCRIPTION
This reads a YAML (YAML::Syck) file that contains FormBuilder config options and returns a hash to be fed to CGI::FormBuilder->new().
Instead of the syntax read by CGI::FormBuilder::Source::File, it uses YAML syntax as read by YAML::Syck. That means you fully specify the
entire data structure.
LoadCode is enabled, so you can use YAML syntax for defining subroutines. This is convenient if you have a function that generates valida-
tion subrefs, for example, I have one that can check profanity using Regexp::Common.
validate:
myfield:
javascript: /^[sS]{2,50}$/
perl: !!perl/code: >-
{ My::Funk::fb_perl_validate({
min => 2,
max => 50,
profanity => 'check'
})->(shift);
}
POST PROCESSING
There are two exceptions to "pure YAML syntax" where this module does some post-processing of the result.
REFERENCES (ala CGI::FormBuilder::Source::File)
You can specify references as string values that start with &, $, @, or \% in the same way you can with CGI::FormBuilder::Source::File.
If you have a full direct package reference, it will look there, otherwise it will traverse up the caller stack and take the first it
finds.
For example, say your code serves multiple sites, and a menu gets different options depending on the server name requested:
# in My::Funk:
our $food_options = {
www.meats.com => [qw( beef chicken horta fish )],
www.veggies.com => [qw( carrot apple quorn radish )],
};
# in source file:
options: @{ $My::Funk::food_options->{ $ENV{SERVER_NAME} } }
EVAL STRINGS
You can specify an eval statement. You could achieve the same example a different way:
options: eval { $My::Funk::food_options->{ $ENV{SERVER_NAME} }; }
The cost either way is about the same -- the string is eval'd.
EXAMPLE
method: GET
header: 0
title: test
name: test
action: /test
submit: test it
linebreaks: 1
required:
- test1
- test2
fields:
- test1
- test2
- test3
- test4
fieldopts:
test1:
type: text
size: 10
maxlength: 32
test2:
type: text
size: 10
maxlength: 32
test3:
type: radio
options:
-
- 1
- Yes
-
- 0
- No
test4:
options: @test4opts
sort: &Someother::Package::sortopts
validate:
test1: /^w{3,10}$/
test2:
javascript: EMAIL
perl: eq 'test@test.foo'
test3:
- 0
- 1
test4: @test4opts
You get the idea. A bit more whitespace, but it works in a standardized way.
METHODS
new()
Normally not used directly; it is called from CGI::FormBuilder. Creates the "CGI::FormBuilder::Source::YAML" object. Arguments from the
'source' hash passed to CGI::FormBuilder->new() will become defaults, unless specified in the file.
parse($source)
Normally not used directly; it is called from CGI::FormBuilder. Parses the specified source file. No fancy params -- just a single file-
name is accepted. If the file isn't acceptable to YAML::Syck, I suppose it will die.
