Pass variables from Perl to Ajax and back
Hi everybody, I'm creating a website with HTML / Javascript embeded in perl code. I use perl to get values from a MySQL database which I need to feed a chart created with the javascript code so the chart can be updated on the fly. Everything works perfectly well except I don't know how the perl variable values can be passed to the javascript within the same document.
Here is abbreviated example code:

Validating an Optional field with Bootstrap Jquey
Hi:
My form asks the user the following question:
If you have a "Discount Code" enter it below.
Most people will not have a code so the field cannot be required, but when it is filled, I want the jquery validation to guard me against malicious code.
The form works great. The field is checking for "alpha numeric values" and "minimum characters" but I cannot submit it...Last edited by virtualweb; Jun 9 '16, 03:55 PM. Reason: Adding the code to the post instead of in separate file -

Extract text from a Website Stats Widget
Hello:
I found a very nice Website Stats widget which I copy pasted into my site.
What I like about this widget is that not only tells you which URL, country, date, time, IP, refrerrer, etc, (that most website counters display today), but a very cool additional piece of information I haven't found in any other webiste counter. It displays the city where the visitor comes from.
You can see the widget here.... -

For ease of explanation I used the numerical emails 1 through 10, But emails surelly be very different in real life, and if I have emails in the follwing list:
zebra@server.co m
young@server.co m

Preserving Array Values Positions
Hello:
I have two lists of emails saved in flat files one email per line.
My script removes the emails in list 2 if they are present in list 1. Then reprints the email list, one email per line, back into list 2 but without the weeded out emails.
Except that when reprinting back to list 2 the order is random and I want to preserve the same order in which the emails were at first.

It Worked...!!!
Hi KevinADC:
I appreciate your help.. I had tryed your solution prior to posting for help here, and it didnt work. This made me think that uploading a file was different than passing text as a variable.
Second time around worked just fine..
Thanx a million

Hello KevinADC:
I was hoping there was a way using localtime that would stamp the time the user reached that subroutine.. and then adding one minute to it would allow it to continue..all the while showing a gif image to tell the user a process is underway.
This is above my expertise but i hope the logic is correct.
Thanx for your imput
