@felgallApr 03.2006 — To pass a field from javascript to a cgi you add it to the end of the URL of the cgi

var t1 = 'anything';

location.href = 'myperl.cgi?t1=' +t1;

The cgi can then read it using

($key, $value) = split(/=/, $ENV{'QUERY_STRING"});

and now what was in Javascript variable t1 is now in PERL variable $t1.

JS:

var s = 'abc';

Perl:

I need $str to be the value of var s.

Please help!
