Personally I'd recommend that you posted, even if you do manage to get a solution which others later correct. Quite often on here I've seen someone post something and thought 'Yes, that's how I'd do it too', only to then see problems others have pointed out with the solution. It's always useful to learn from the side-discussions that spring up.
It would probably be a good idea to say you're not absolutely certain however, and preferably test your solution with a bit of test data if you can though.
Well done for the relaxed attitude about XP too!

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
