Hi everyone! I am very new to Perl, and have a problem/question.
I downloaded a very simple search script, and configured it for my Website. I was able to customize the output page to match the color, and theme of my site. I was also able to get it to display what it was searching for. My problem now is, I can not for the life of me get it to count the number of results it finds and display that count on the result page. I can post the script here, or email it to someone, (nothing sensitive, it s a recipe/Hobby site), and someone tell me what to put where? I'm not new to coding, I've been coding with MS Access VB for over a decade, but with perl, I'm a babe in the woods. I know how to create a variable for the counts, but it keeps crashing when I try to insert a count function into where I think it's finding it's results. I am lost, and would so much appreciate some help. IF anyone is interested in seeing what I'm talking about, my site is http://www.jimslaptop.com and the count function is in food, and in model cars Real cars is a different site of mine that is linked to it.
Thanks,
Jim.
