I am working on a YaBB 2.5.2 mod which is executable from any page of the forum because it is form driven and the form is within the HTML code.

Now I have a little delimma.  I have the following code:

  $yySetLocation = qq~$scripturl?action=logrolldisplay~;
  &redirectexit; 

After the form is executed and certain conditions are met, it redirects you to a log of results.  That works great, mind you... except I'm concerned that someone might be in the middle of doing something else and then get whisked away to the log results inadvertently.

What I would like is to append the code in such a way that it uses the above code if you are already looking at the log of results ($scripturl?action=logrolldisplay), but if you are not, it opens up a separate window.

Any idea how can I do this?

I figure it might work like so:

	my $log_url=qq~{$sourcedir/YaBB.pl?action=logrolldisplay}~;
	if ( $ENV {'SCRIPT_URI'} !eq $log_url ) {
		print qq{content-type: text/html\n\n};
		print qq{<script type="text/javascript">window.open('$log_url')</script>\n};
	} 

Anybody think otherwise?

On the first line:

        my $log_url=qq~{$sourcedir/YaBB.pl?action=logrolldisplay}~; 

Either use one:

        my $log_url=qq{$sourcedir/YaBB.pl?action=logrolldisplay}; 

Or the other:

        my $log_url=qq~$sourcedir/YaBB.pl?action=logrolldisplay~; 

But not both. That will print:

{./Sources/YaBB.pl?action=logrolldisplay} 

But that's different from what you want from the $ENV{'SCRIPT_URL'} variable anyway, so will never be equal.

And there is no such operator as:

!eq 

For not equal to, it's:

ne 

Use != for numerics and ne for anything else.

I don't think there is an environment variable for the whole url, so would need to do something like this:

    my $log_url = "$scripturl?action=logrolldisplay";
    my $user_log_url = "http://$ENV{'HTTP_HOST'}$ENV{'REQUEST_URI'}";
