Thanks for your help, parkers! I didn't know you could just put reverse to sort in reverse. I think in the end I'll use this code: foreach $dream (@tableOfDreams) { @dateOfDream = split('/', uptoFirst("\n", $dream)); #split into dd, mm, yy $dream =...

I've got an array full of dates in the form ('dd/mm/yy', 'dd/mm/yy', ... etc. (I'm from the UK). I want to use Perl's built in sort function to sort them in order and in reverse order. Any help much appreciated. -Ed ;-) ________________________________ Destiny is not a matter of chance; it...

The code bellow was working fine until I changed something by mistake and suddenly it says only this when I try to run it: Warning: Content-Type header not found in the script output. If this script is not a CGI one, please use the Run -> Run in Command Prompt menu to run it. Execution of...

I have recently discovered the folloeing device: print <<HTML_END; (What you want to print) HTML_END And find it very useful. My questiuon is this: if what you want to print contains lots of @ and $ signs in (as in talking about email addresses and currency rather than variables), is there...

I'm only a beginner at using regular expressions, and would like to know how to use one to see if $variable contains only digits or not. I.e. I want a statement that returns false if $variable contains any character other than a digit. Any help would be very much appreciated. -Ed ;-)...

If I have the name of a variable stored in another variable, can I read the contents of the variable? EG: $nameOfVariable = &quot;foo&quot;; $foo = &quot;contents of variable that I want to read&quot;; # Now, supposing that $foo could be anything, # eg. $sweetcorn, is it possible to...

Thanks loads for your help! Here's the code I'm using in the end: function isHex(string) { if (string.length!=6) return false; for (i=0; i<6; i++) { if (isNaN(parseInt(string.charAt(i), 16))) {return false;} } return true; } -Ed ;-)...

What's a quick way to check that a six character string is a valid hex value (i.e. contains only numbers and letters A-F?)? I expect it would invlove regular expressions but haven't got the hang of them yet, so would apprieciate some help. -Ed ;-) ________________________________ Destiny is...

As Topmach and Haunter suggested, I don't think I went about solving the problem in the right way. I have a perl script loaded every time there's a 404 error. Can I get to a variable that says what file they were trying to access to get the error? -Ed ;-) ________________________________...

Thanks for your help Cian! I think the real problem was that IE puts margins inside the dimensions of a layer, where as Nestcape and Opera put them on the outside. I've now found a way round the problem by using two layers on top of each other, and solved the other problem by adjusting the...

I've started making a website using CSS at the following address: http://www.hyperhive.com/test/ In IE it displays just how I want it, but I also want my website to be compatible with Netscape 6 and 7 and Opera. With these browsers there are two problems: * The absolute positioned <DIV> tags...
