Hi Ron and listers,
Yes Ron, I also agree with you and Rob that all questions AND especially =
answers should be sent to the list so everybody can benefit from it or =
maybe suddenly see a different way of doing things for their own sites.
I already had a discussion with Rob why I asked for personal answers. It =
was not intended from me to deprive the list of any interesting answers. =
Again it was not meant like that. On other lists I have been on most =
messages meant as a direct discussion with a person mostly trigger =
name-calling contests that people should write to those persons =
personally. Because this list works differently I appologise.
Back to the question at hand.
You say there is a simple way of perl-scripting to take <tr> table rows =
out of a html table that contain a certain word or string and paste the =
rows <tr>string+other stuff in this row</tr> into a table on this page =
or a new one. It would be triggered by typing a word into a text-filed =
and pressing submit.
Maybe put the initial long table on a separate page in order not to =
create a long wait for the viewer.
I would love to see how you wrote this code.
At this moment I am also looking into using asp to search through an =
excel sheet and take the wanted rows out. I think both methods have =
advantages and disadvantages. But I would be interested in the script.
Thanks very much for your help,
bob
