Cgi to dump xml data from form input field
Hi All,
I am trying to write a shell script which takes parse the web form find the input field and dump the data of that field into one xml file. The form looks like,
<input type="button" id="btnSave" value="Save" onclick="saveXmlData()"/>
<form name="submitForm" action="./saveData.cgi" method="get">
<input type="hidden" name="xmldata" />
</form>
At the end the cgi should return a html saying that "Data saved."
I have never written cgi. I would appreciate if you can guide me resolvethis or point me out some article, sample or other link.
Thanks,
Jdp

dump(3tk) dump(3tk)
NAME
dump - Dump information about Tcl interpreter in TkCon
SYNOPSIS
dump method ?-nocomplain? ?-filter pattern? ?--? pattern ?pattern ...?
DESCRIPTION
The dump command provides a way for the user to spit out state information about the interpreter in a Tcl readable (and human readable)
form. It takes the general form:
dump method ?-nocomplain? ?-filter pattern? ?--? pattern ?pattern ...?
The patterns represent glob-style patterns (as in string match pattern $str). -nocomplain will prevent dump from throwing an error if no
items matched the pattern. -filter is interpreted as appropriate for the method. The various methods are:
dump command args
Outputs one or more commands.
dump procedure args
Outputs one or more procs in sourceable form.
dump variable args
Outputs the values of variables in sourceable form. Recognizes nested arrays. The -filter pattern is used as to filter array ele-
ment names and is interepreted as a glob pattern (defaults to {*}). It is passed down for nested arrays.
dump widget args
Outputs one or more widgets by giving their configuration options. The -filter pattern is used as to filter the config options and
is interpreted as a case insensitive regexp pattern (defaults to {.*}).
