Dave's Other Scripts and Files

This is a collection of perl scripts and other files I hope you will find useful for learning more about perl and CGI. For CGI you will usually need to change the file extension to '.cgi' and do a 'chmod 755 filename'. Directory listing follows file comments.

These files are stored in UNIX so if any scripts or text files appear to be munged in DOS/Win use Wordpad or a word processor to edit and save as plain text. And if you upload from DOS/Win to UNIX, upload as ASCII, not binary.

comments.pl e-mails the results of any form POSTed to it and will provide a default comment form if you GET (link to) it.

datepage.pl goes through a list of Web pages to change the "Last updated ..." string to the date the file was last modified.

formtest.pl is useful for testing forms. It displays the raw url-encoded GET or POST string and parses out the variables for display as html or plain text.

guestbk2.pl is an extension of Matt's guestbook script that allows you to preview your entry in html before it is actually posted.

htpasswd.pl is a cgi script to remotely add users, change password or remove user to a password file for user authenticated web directories/files. Optionally can allow new users to add their own name, but otherwise has special administration password.

namegame explains how to pass a desired filename for download to any browser from a CGI script. Contains a link to a demo.

quickspy2.pl is a console Quake 2 server browser. It polls Q2 servers and shows more details (players and rules) for a selected server. From there you can connect to the server. It can now get server lists from the web or a local file. See the text file for more details.

uldemo is an example of Netscape file upload, but it does not provide any security measures. You may want to give it an obscure name and don't link anything to it. (fixed for broken MSIE upload addon)

webqstat.pl displays QuakeWorld or Quake 2 server status in html table format without requiring any plugin. Can be used as SSI or standalone. Tested in Linux and Solaris. Requires qstat (Win32 version available). Also see qc.html for a chart of Quake shirt/pants colors.

WWWgrab.pm Perl5 module for grabbing web pages and response headers from the shell. See WWWgrab.txt for details.

wwwpost may be useful if you maintain an alternate site for submitting form data and want to POST it to a form at the primary Web site. It includes wwwgrab to GET Web pages from the shell.

xnet_users_only will contain XNet specific files or programs compiled on our system. This can only be accessed on the web from an xnet domain or from your home directory 'cd ../efflandt/public_html/pub/xnet_users_only'.
