passing perl variable into input tag in cgi script
 
How can I to pass a perl variable into html input tag?
For example, If a have got a cgi script:

Quote:
use CGI;
use DBI;


my $owner = $cgi->param('owner');
.....
.....
.....

print "<html>";
.....
.....
print "<form ...>";
.....
print "<input type='hidden' name='profile' value=\"$owner\">";
.....
print "</form>";
print "</html>";
How can I to pass $owner variable?

Your example code looks fine to me. What does the resulting HTML looks like? What doesn't do what you expect? Your use of quotes is a bit inconsistent, but I don't think this a cause of problems.
