( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

Hey Thanks a lot. I got it. I greatly appreciate your help. I have another small issue. when I get the array of something I extract, I try to print them using the code

if (ref($bar) eq "ARRAY") { foreach my $q (@$bar){ print FH $q ,","; } } else { print FH $bar; }

But, this doesn't seem to be of help. I want to do something that if its an array separate them by ',' else just print the individual without ','. But when I use the above code it also prints the single element with a ',' and in an array it gives ',' after the last element. I know how to solve the same issue in XSLT its something like

<xsl:test if position() != last()> <xsl:value-of select="."/>; </xsl:test> <xsl:test if position() = last()> <xsl:value-of select="."/> </xsl:test>

Thus everything is separated by ';' except for the last element and if its only a single element then it gets printed as it is. Can I do something same in perl, can you please help. Thank you, Sammed

to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • 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).
