I am trying to avoid using frames, but would also like to avoid changing the code on all of my pages when I add or subtract something from my menu bar. For my menu bar, I use Adobe Image Ready to slice and dice an image file, give it mouse over properties, and generate the html and java to give it functionality. Unless I am missing an easy solution, I envision calling on menu.cgi - via ssi - in all my pages. This way, I only update the code in menu.cgi when I have a menu change - rather than editing each individual page. Is there a simple way to do this with cgi? I tried several options to no avail.
although logical, I do not think you can simply use a print statement and "s with all of the code in between.
print " <all your code>";
but from an ease of use point of view - this method would be worse than changing the individual pages:
print "<html>\n";
print "<body>\n";
etc. for every line of code...
I saw this and was excited as an option, but no luck here either:
print <<EOL;
<all your code>
EOL
but no matter what I try, I get an error. I know that cgi.pm plays a big part in the execution, but I 1) don't know how to code it and 2) know where the bulk of the html needs to go.
can I make a variable called $body with all of the code
and then
print <$body>;
any pointers or recomendations are greatly appreciated!
