I want to embed a perl program into a shtml file so I can include a top.shtml and a bottom.shtml which has normal markup stuff like CSS. But, I also want to pass information via POST to the script.
When I have this in the .shtml which is recieving information from a HTML form:
Everything there is correct, but none of the information from the form is being passed to script.pl, and therefore it does nothing.
Does anyone know if this is possible? I heard something about EmbPerl but I'm not sure if it's the right way to do it.
Also, I don't want to just print out the contents of top.shtml in the script because that would just be slow.
Thanks in advance for any help...

If you look at this site: http://bilder.ecos.de/index1.htm
Click on the third link from the left at the top, it takes you to a form, the form's action is set to another .htm file where it's processed. There must be a perl script embedded somewhere in that htm file that the form leads to.
I want to know how to do this...
Im really not sure but maybe that form is sent via not server side,
i really dont know this for sure,
