%fdat for select w/ multiple values

I would like to know how Embperl stores the data if multiple values are
selected. For instance if you have selected multiple values from a
select box what does the %fdat hash look like? I'm not able to test this
(we don't have Embperl installed as our handler) so I was wondering if
someone could tell me. Thank you.

Hi John,

I wrote up a little demo that should help:

http://dev2.savingforchildren.co.uk/mjs/jttest.epl

A word of warning though - if you're thinking about using Embperl I'd
be wary. Much as I love it, the author isn't currently supporting it
(hopefully this will change at some point), and the distribution
version now needs to be patched to work properly with the latest
version of CGI.pm.

I second Michael's warning. Don't go there.

Yes, at the moment, I would agree to your opinion.

We use embperl for some big sites and it works perfect, but embperl
development has stopped. At the moment, we are looking at Catalyst -
looks like an interesting system...

Some times ago, someone on the list tried to start something for more
development - but no one seemed to be interested in doing the
work... :-)

With best regards,

RE: %fdat for select w/ multiple values [In reply to]

Hi Everyone,

We have been using embperl since 1999 and use it in medium to large sites
and, as mentioned, it works wonderfully. Sadly though, I have to agree with
what has been stated. We do stick to embperl for now where we have used it
but have started investigating possible alternatives and Catalyst seems to
be the preferred option, at least for us.

We do however not intend to use embperl in any new developments.

I do still hope that work on embperl will recommence as it would be such
waist not to.

Regards,
Ragnar Hakonarson
