Help with counting lines?

[Davidd Sargent]

Hi Everybody,
I'm new to this group.
I am trying to make a script but have a slight problem so I turned to you
guys.

I have a textarea which the user types there subdomain in to and then click
submit.
What I want is on the results page for it to count the number of subdomains
(each domain will be separated by \n (a newline)).

Thanks in Advance

Kind Regards


Dave

Show us the code you have so far.

Sorry I'm a beginner.

$tempvar = $in{'packageID'};
$line = "\n";
@newtextareaarray = split($tempvar,$line);
$count ="0";
foreach $line (@newtextareaarray) {
$count++;

}


print qq|Here : $count|;


Thanks

Dave

You posted both to this group and to comp.lang.perl.misc. That's
called multi-posting, and is considered rude.
