The line you tried to edit has the result of storing the output from executing the cowsay command in the variable $cowsay. If you want the cow to say "RANDOM TEXT", the line should look like this:<br /><br />my $cowsay = `/usr/games/cowsay "RANDOM TEXT"`;<br /><br />Take note that those are backticks enclosing the command to be executed, NOT apostrophes. Enclosing a command to be executed in backticks stores the output of the executed command into the defined variable.<br /><br />Here is a link to an article explaining how backticks are used to execute commands in perl: http://alvinalexander.com/blog/post/perl/use-backtick-operator-access-system-commands<br /><br />Also, the JavaScript should go in the body tag, not in the head tag. The perl script actually outputs JavaScript, which is in turn executed client-side by your browser. The JavaScript has to be executed in the body in order to be displayed.King Beetlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18152014955345668561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4922485033144956253.post-83918727089538355542013-02-11T17:06:56.425-05:002013-02-11T17:06:56.425-05:00I am new to this.

Maybe I am making a mistake but this is what I did.<br /><br />I edited this line of the 'cow_quote.pl' file.<br />my $cowsay = `RANDOM TEXT`;<br /><br />Now, I created an HTML page, test.html with your content inside the head tag of html. The body tag is empty.<br /><br />Both the perl file and the html file are in the same folder.

...Thank you! I LOVE getting feedback on my posts.<br /><br /> I do think that someone coming from a Windows environment might find Gnome easier to manage than Xfce. <br /><br /> Gnome's file manager (Nautilus) has much better drag-and-drop functionality and support for image thumbnails, features that Thunar (Xfce's file manager) lacks and a Windows user is going to expect.<br /><br /> If the old laptop you are considering installing Zenwalk on has a slow processor (I would say below 700 MHz), or has less than 256MB of RAM, Xfce is probably going to run quicker and more smoothly than Gnome. <br /><br /> I would install the Gnome edition first, and if the performance isn't what you think it should be, you can always use Zenwalk's netpkg Package Manager to install Xfce. Then you can switch back and forth between Gnome and Xfce at the GDM login.King Beetlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18152014955345668561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4922485033144956253.post-58862911712993982412009-11-04T20:24:02.080-05:002009-11-04T20:24:02.080-05:00Nice review.
