I have a script which takes in a small piece of text using an HTML form. it passes this onto an IF statement within contained within a scaler and this is run through an Eval statement.

However if i set the value of the text within the script and ignore the param then it works fine.

Does any one have an idea?

That sounds like the most horrible security hole I have ever heard of. You shouldn't be doing that.

I would be surprised if Perl is stopping you, unless you have it in taint mode, but this is not a problem you ought to "fix" - you should find a different solution!

Hi bob,

Perhaps a little more information or a code snippet could point us in the right direction to try and help you. I'm not really sure what you mean.
