I could use a little help with a Perl script. It uses this for the log in password:

Code:

my $password = $query->param('password'); $password =~ s/"/\\"/sg; my @result;

Problem is when the password is entered it returns an "incorrect password" error. If I view the database I see that the account is there and there is a password filled in. If I make that password blank in the database and then log in with the password blank, it works.

Makes me think the problem is in the switches in the password script or that it calls for some function not supported by my perl install. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I am just a beginner coder, especially at Perl

If it helps I can post the entire script.

Not sure why your using
$password =~ s/"/\\"/sg;
if it is a security issue $password =~ s/\<//g; will make it safe to pass on. But I think your primary problem is
my @result;
@result is an array. Nothing I can see in your post would add $password to the array.
Try (@result) = ($password);
