I am new in perl (actually programming in any language). I am trying to call a Javascript function, which is embeded in the Perl code, I need to pass a variable to the Javascript function. However, it didn't work, could anybody help me out? Thanks a lot.
The purpose of the code is to input a number in the box and then click the check button to check the number.
My code is ---
#!usr/local/bin/perl
<script language="Javascript">
function checknum(number){
statement
}
</script>
print "<form name=\"inputnum\">";
print "<input type= \"text"\ name=\"numValue"\ size=\"5\" >";
print "<input type = \"button\" name=\"check\" onClick=\"checknum($i)\">"
