Checkboxes
This slide shows how to send the user input including checkboxes to a server for processing.
If you select some checkboxes below and click the “Submit” button, the browser will call the following scripts:
8.html ⇒ Check.cgi ⇒ Check.pl ⇒ Check.java
and list the corresponding descriptions and sales based on the selected brands.
<form method="post" action="http://undcemcs01.und.edu/~wen.chen.hu/cgi-bin/jdbc/Check.cgi">
<input type="checkbox" name="MKF Studios" value="1" /> MKF Studios
<input type="checkbox" name="Wolf" value="1" checked="checked" /> Wolf
<input type="checkbox" name="Parabuster Inc." value="1" /> Parabuster Inc.
<input type="checkbox" name="Big Studios" value="1" checked="checked" /> Big Studios
<input type="submit" name="act" value="Submit" />
<input type="submit" name="act" value="HTML source" />
<input type="submit" name="act" value="CGI source" />
<input type="submit" name="act" value="Perl source" />
<input type="submit" name="act" value="Java source" />
<input type="submit" name="act" value="Help" />
<input type="reset" value="Reset" />
</form>

The following code,
Check.cgi
is used to set the web environment for the Oracle database:
~/public_html/cgi-bin/jdbc/Check.cgi
|
#!/usr/bin/bash
CLASSPATH=.:/usr/lib/oracle/23/client64
CLASSPATH=$CLASSPATH:/usr/lib/oracle/23/client64/lib/ojdbc8.jar
CLASSPATH=$CLASSPATH:/usr/lib/oracle/23/client64/lib/ottclasses.zip
export CLASSPATH
/usr/bin/perl Check.pl
|
The following Perl script is mainly used to process the web inputs including the checkboxes.
~/public_html/cgi-bin/jdbc/Check.pl
|
#!/usr/bin/perl
use CGI;
$query = new CGI;
$act = $query->param( 'act' );
if ( $act eq "Submit" ) {
# Print HTML.
print ( "Content-type: text/html\n\n" );
# Use "here-doc" syntax.
print <<EndofHTML;

The following JDBC script accesses the database and retrieves the descriptions and sales.
~/public_html/cgi-bin/jdbc/Check.java

/*******************************************************************
This program shows how to list the cities and
descriptions in the stores and productions tables
based on the sales.
To use this program, you need to create the following
three tables by using the following commands:
SQL> CREATE TABLE stores (
2 store_key INTEGER PRIMARY KEY,
3 city VARCHAR(32) NOT NULL,
4 region VARCHAR(16) NOT NULL );
SQL> CREATE TABLE products (
2 product_key INTEGER PRIMARY KEY,
3 description VARCHAR(32) NOT NULL,
4 brand VARCHAR(32) NOT NULL );
SQL> CREATE TABLE sales_fact (
2 store_key INTEGER,
3 product_key INTEGER,
4 sales NUMBER(5,2) NOT NULL,
5 cost NUMBER(5,2) NOT NULL,
6 profit NUMBER(5,2) NOT NULL,
7 PRIMARY KEY ( store_key, product_key ),
8 FOREIGN KEY ( store_key ) REFERENCES stores( store_key ) ON DELETE CASCADE,
9 FOREIGN KEY ( product_key ) REFERENCES products( product_key ) ON DELETE CASCADE );
