Redirect
Well, i think you all know how to redirect in PHP (header(‘Location: page.php’)) but, in perl, you have to set the header before the input, and what if you always include a header file, print the content, and then a footer file, or use some kind of “PHP” Navigation, including files?
Well, there is one way to do this, “Javascript”
You can redirect with Javascript from Perl!
First, you need to make a basic JS Code
function redirect(time, url)
{
$seconds = time*1000;
$url = url;
setTimeout(“window.location=$url”,$seconds);
}
That will redirect in x seconds, to an x url
And, for some Perl integration, i made this simple function
sub redirect
{
print ‘<script language=”javascript” type=”text/javascript”>redirect(‘.$_[0].’,\”.$_[1].’\')</script>’;
}
And thats all! Now, when you want to redirect, just make
redirect(1,’mypage.pl’);
Thats the equivalent of PHP’s
header(‘refresh: 1; url=mypage.php’);
Well, i hope you find this useful :] Bye!
