Go to the Phone Book.
Phone Book
Description
This is a web interface to the UIUC online phonebook called ph. Based on user input, this Phone Book Query Interface will return any query matches.
Implementation
This uses HTML forms to get the information from the user(i.e. the GUI interface). When the form is submitted (by the user either hitting the return key inside the "Query" text field or by clicking on the "SUBMIT" button), the data entered by the user is passed to a CGI script called ph.cgi written in PERL. This PERL script takes the user data and makes a ph query and then ouputs the query result back to the web page.
For more detailed implementation information and notes, see the code and this file: README.txt.
Requirements
- An HTTP server with:
- Ability to execute CGI scripts
- PERL version 4 or greater
- An operating system with PERL 4 or greater installed
- UNIX
- Windows NT Server 4.0 or greater (with small modifications) and with PERL for NT installed
