$ENV{DOCUMENT_ROOT} but for Windows?

[JDWilliams]

I keep meaning to move everything over to a Linux server but haven't had the time yet. What I'm currently using is ActivePerl 5.8.7 on a Windows 2003 server with IIS 6.0. The issue I'm having is that I'm using HTML::Template and am wanting to point to where the template file is.

The following won't work because I'm on Windows:

use constant TMPL_FILE => $ENV{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/templates/billchg1-2.tmpl

My question is how do I point to the document root on Windows without having to hardcode the above?

Is the perl command cwd (http://perl.active-venture.com/lib/Cwd.html) any help at all ?

I'll give that a try. That looks like the perfect solution. Thanks!

You can, and probably should, use the FindBin (http://perldoc.perl.org/FindBin.html) module for identifying these directories on any OS.
