Why can't I use print?

Post #1 of 3 (1456 views)

Hi, I don't understand why this doesn't work as I expected it. Is there
another
way of doing this?
------------------------------------------------------------------------ [-
print "hello" -]
------------------------------------------------------------------------ the
output is:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
hello
------------------------------------------------------------------------ Is
there a way for the print output to appear where I placed it, i.e between the
BODY tags? I know that this case is not very realistic, but there definitely
are situations when I will have to use print or similar. Thanks, Nico

First, you should really use: [+ "Hello" +]

If, for some reason, you really need to use print then take a look at the
embperl options. I think the one you want to set in your httpd.conf is
OPT_REDIRECT_STDOUT or something like that.

You need to do [- print OUT "hello" -] instead.

Check http://perl.apache.org/embperl/ for examples of this.
