help me write a text comparison cgi

2 New Member
Hi
I have a very limited knowledge of perl so forgive me if this is a stupid question or if it seems very basic. I'm trying to write code that takes two texts submitted from an html form and compares them and then displays the following. The lines the texts have in common and also lists each word in the texts as well as how may times they appear in each text.

I dont know where to start however. I assume i have to read each text into an array but I'm not sure where to go from there. cay anyone write some code to start me off?

as i say I'm just a beginner so i hope this makes sense!

Cheers S

A few minutes later you posted the same question to comp.lang.perl.misc, and who knows to how many other groups/lists/forums you posted it? That's called multi-posting, is considered rude, and makes at least me disinclined to help you.

Hi
Sorry I didnt mean to be rude. I just want sure what forums were the best and I was looking for a quick responce. I posted in multiple forms because different people visit different forums and I want as much help as i can get. if this is considered rude then i appologise.

Apology accepted. You got a couple of responses in clpmisc, and I'd suggest that you continue with follow-ups there.
