filter.pl where?

jfisk · 09-04-2003, 11:45 AM

On my webserver I have a page that submits an email... it needs a perl file called filter.pl in order to work, after doing a couple web searches I find results but I don't know what I'm looking for. Does anyone have a link or the code for filter.pl?
Thanks,
Justin

Can you give us a bit more info. Where did oyu fnd out how to create this html page? If you didn't write the script do you know who did?

I got the file from here: http://dansguardian.org/downloads/ja...sdenied.tar.gz
it is a denied page for dansguardian.
I think it uses filter.pl to process the email form.

So you are just taking someone elses code? Why don't you just get a script that was specifically written for this type of thing? Take a look at:

Well I am using Dan's Guardian, and as you can see I'm a newbie. I was just attempting to use something already done. This is my first time doing anything with perl.

Wel I would expect that the script is somewhere in the source but I'm afraid I don't use DansGuardian.
