Error Problem with while reading HTML inputs in cgi script
Hi All,

I am not able to read my HTML form inputs properly in my script.
I have a textarea in my form where user needs to enter sql query... but when user enter query like below :
select * from order_queue where NUM_OF_PICKUP >=3 and TRANSACTION_TYPE=4 ;

its coming like :
select 171_arc abn_daily abn_data_cmpltn abn_rpt abn_voice_cmpltn bvoip_rpt calnet_rpt cola_rpt common_gen_row_data common_rpt data_cmpltn data_ptl_cmplt data_rpt getcanx gov_login_add gvpn_rpt he_recap_cgi iom_db_tool iom_vol ipmis_acc_info_rpt ipmis_rpt le_arc le_cycle le_data le_new_vol le_new_vol_a le_recap_cgi le_rejects le_rpt le_saved le_svc_rpt le_vol local_daily_rpt local_legacy_daily_rpt local_rpt local_svc_rpt lpl_act_co lpl_ft n_nod_rejects networx_authenticate networx_dailyrpt networx_rpt networx_user_rpt nod_25 nod_acty nod_feat_data nod_ft_rpt nod_raw_data nod_recap_cgi nod_vol nod_vol_rpt pq_networx_dailyrpt pq_networx_rpt prime_act_co prime_ft prime_lpl_raw proccgi rejects sv_report swv_geo_acc_code_rpt tnet_networx_dailyrpt tnet_networx_rpt vol_report from order_queue where NUM_OF_PICKUP >=3 and TRANSACTION_TYPE=4 ;

From the above ouput, I found that the symbol "*" is getting replaced with all dir and subdir where my cgi script located....

How to get exact input which user enters in the textarea in my HTML form?

I tried like this in my cgi script :
echo "${FORM_input_query}"

Thanks in advance,
Saravana

html problem: get file name dialog exists?

Hello, I wonder whether if we have a open file dialog as (in gtk+) in html.

I only want to find out the file name, not upload it. Thanks! (0 Replies)

script(1)						      General Commands Manual							 script(1)

NAME

       script - Makes a transcript of terminal session

SYNOPSIS

       script [-a] [file]

       The script command makes a transcript of everything printed on your terminal.

OPTIONS

       Appends the transcript to file rather than writing it to file.

OPERANDS

       The name of an output file that will contain the transcript of the session.  If this parameter is omitted, the file typescript is written.

DESCRIPTION

       The transcript is written to file, or appended to file if the -a option is given.  If no file name is given, the transcript is saved in the
       file typescript.

       The script ends when the forked shell exits.

       This program is useful when you are using a CRT and want a hard-copy record of the dialog (for example, a technical writer might create	an
       example of a working session this way).

       If you specify the -a option and the file does not exist, it is created.

       If you do not specify the -a option and the file exists, it is replaced.

RESTRICTIONS

       The  script command requires a streams based terminal.  In single user mode, streams may not be enabled.  Under these circumstances, script
       will exit with no action.  If you are the superuser and need to run this command in single user mode, use the  following  special  instruc-
       tions.

   Enabling Streams
       If it is necessary to enable a streams environment in the single user mode, enter the command /sbin/init.d/streams.  This command is avail-
       able to the superuser only.
