Re: realperl

[Jason Korkin <jkorkin@korksoft.com>]

Hi Folks...
	Okay, here is what I learned today... someone put this in a FAQ or
something!

	1. [realperl] is nifty, but has limitations according to both Safe and
Strict
	2. If you want to access files (ie. via open() command), use a
GlobalSub
	3. If you want to do if statements, in a faster pre-compiled code, use
[realperl], its your friend.
	4. Call realperl with arguments, [realperl
record=[item-code]]&mysub();[/realperl], its easier to manage in the
long run.


	Okay, an heres the major question for tomorrow, what do I need to
define in my checkout.html file to get CyberCash working? All I get is
ordered failed... anyone, anyone, anyone...

	thanks all! :-) 

	Jason.
