I want to include a new variable and textarea in the add new link form. From what I discovered, it seems like i have to edit site.pl and site_template.pl as well. Can anyone give me specific instructions on how to declare a variable and have it used through out the program?
Also, i intend on taking some variables and use it to generate a new page (in the manner of message boards, if you will) using some codes from a cgi card program, the url of that page should be automatically entered as the URL of the entry. Are these tasks too much for me, a CGI novice, to undertake? If so, are there better alternatives, such as using the detail page to display the said textarea variable?
Thanks in advance,
Sam
