judging from his few other writeups, it always sounds like "I need to have that done. Do it for me! ...oh no! I need it done like this, not like that".

Nashkab, I don't just want to blame you. I'd like to recommend you to really try hard yourself because this is what will bring you further. You remember better what you created than what other people created. You can also learn a lot from your mistakes. You don't see those if you just prompt other people around for spitting out the correct code for you.

...looking forward to providing some Perl help when you'll _really_ get stuck after _really_ trying.

• 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).
• Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
