Hello
Here is the chunk of code that doesn't want to work with me:

#!/usr/bin/perl -wT 
 
use strict; 
use CGI::Carp qw(warningsToBrowser fatalsToBrowser); 
use CGI qw/:standard/; 
 
 
my $media_type = param('media_type'); 
 
 
print header; 
print start_html('New Order'),"New Order"; 
print start_form(-method=>'get'); 
 
 
if ($media_type == "film"){ 
        &film_form(); 
 
} elsif ($media_type == "tapes"){ 
        &tapes_form(); 
 
} elsif ($media_type == "sildes/photo"){ 
        &slides_form(); 
 
} elsif ($media_type == "audio-tapes"){ 
        &tapes_form(); 
 
} else { 
        &media_type_form(); 
} 
 
 
print end_form; 
print end_html; 
 
 
#------------------------------------------------------- 
#------------------------------------------------------- 
# allow to select media type 
 
sub media_type_form 
{ 
print "Media Type: ", 
        scrolling_list('media_type', 
        ['','film','tapes','slides/photo','audio-tapes'], 
        -size=>1), 
        br, 
        submit(-name=>'select',-value=>'select'); 
} 
 
#------------------------------------------------------- 
#------------------------------------------------------- 
# displays form for FILM media 
 
sub film_form 
{ 
print "FILM FORM"; 
} 
 
#------------------------------------------------------- 
#------------------------------------------------------- 
# displays form for TAPES media 
 
sub tapes_form 
{ 
print "TAPES FORM"; 
} 
 
#------------------------------------------------------ 
#------------------------------------------------------- 
# dispplays form for SLIDES/PHOTOS 
 
sub slides_form 
{ 
print "TAPES FORM"; 
} 
 
#------------------------------------------------------- 
#------------------------------------------------------- 
# displays form for AUDIO tapes 
 
sub audio_form 
{ 
print "AIDIO TAPES FORM"; 
} 
 
 
#------------------------------------------------------- 
 
__END__

When I run it I get the following;

New Order 
FILM FORM

When it runs for the first time its suppose to give a select menu to choose media type, but instead it thinks that FILM media was selected.

Can any one help me?

Thank you.

Well I solved this by replacing '==' with 'eq'.

if ($media_type == "film"){ 
        &film_form(); 
 
} elsif ($media_type == "tapes"){ 
        &tapes_form(); 
 
} elsif ($media_type == "sildes/photo"){ 
        &slides_form(); 
 
} elsif ($media_type == "audio-tapes"){ 
        &tapes_form(); 
 
} else { 
        &media_type_form(); 
}
