Near the top of one of your script you may see a line somewhat similar to this:

$password = $formdata{'password'};

Just copy that line and paste in a copy like this.

$mode = $formdata{'mode');

Then in the script, use the script format that I posted in the first post to seperate the different parts of your script.

Then in the form that is to send your user to the specific area put in between the <form></form> tags:

That should do ya...

Thanks Vulken! I got the script working first time!

About the linking to a specific part. I wm going to be making a script with essentially two parts in it. The password to protect it (duh ) and the actual news script (the part which will take the contents of twio text boxes and print to a new page). Do I need the form action of the form with the text boxes in to link to a specific part of a script or will it automatically find the part in the script by it self?

Thanks for you help Vulken

On The lines above line 66 you have not escaped your " double quotes. Just put a \slash before each double quote inside each print statement, and you should be fine.

I've yet to do this, but you can link to a specific part of your script by using if statements.

Put in one of your forms <input type="hidden" name="mode" value="mainlogin">
Then in your script put everything needed for mainlogin within a if statement something like this.

if ($mode eq "mainlogin") {
Mainlogin code goes here
} elsif ($mode eq "somethingelse") {
Other code goes here
} else {
print "NO MODE WAS SELECTED";
}

I think that would work
