    perl and url

    Hi,

    I made a cgi-script to subscribe a membership on a particular site. The
    moment the new member wants to log on, he has to fill out a login and
    password that he received. So if the verification is correct, I want to show
    the site. How can I show that url via perl?

    Greetz, Laurens.

      Maybe you print the URL using the print() function?

          This can be done several different ways. If you are using the Apache web
          server, you can write one CGI script where the user can subscribe to the
          site. The script would gather the user information and add the
          user/password entry into the password file using the htpasswd utility that
          comes with Apache. The main page would be in a separate directory that
          would be password protected and would authenticate the user using the
          password file written to be the first page. Another method is to use a
          single CGI script to manage the passwords and show the main page. This
          would basically be a dual purpose CGI script that would invoke itself as the
          form action. When the user first comes to the page, the login page is
          shown. When the user/password is entered, the same CGI page is invoked and
          passed the user/password parameters. After verification, the real page is
          shown. You may want to ask this question on a CGI newsgroup as it's a bit
          difficult to explain in great detail here.
