in reply to Verify Town Name

However no matter what is inputted it moves on with out giving notice stating the town name has not been found.

SSCCE, perltidy, and the code "works"...

use warnings; use strict; addind(); sub addind { open( MYINPUTFILE, "townsdata.txt" ) or die $!; $| = 1; my @lines = <MYINPUTFILE>; print "INDUSTRY TOWN\n"; my $indtwn = <STDIN>; $indtwn = <STDIN> until defined $indtwn; chomp $indtwn; print "cls();\n"; my $found = 0; foreach my $townverify (@lines) { my @field = split( ':', $townverify ); if ( $field[0] =~ m/^#/ ) { next; } if ( $field[1] =~ /(?<![\w-])$indtwn(?![\w-])/i ) { print "cls();\n"; $found = 1; } else { print "cls();\n"; print "TOWN RECORD NOT FOUND\n"; print "sleep 3;\n"; print "cls();\n"; addind(); } my $output = "inddata.txt"; open( DAT, "+<$output" ) || die("Cannot Open File"); my $indline; $indline = <DAT> until eof DAT; my ($indid) = $indline =~ m/\A(\d+):/; print DAT ( ++$indid ); print DAT (":"); print DAT ($indtwn); print DAT ("\n"); close(DAT); print "INDUSTRY SUCCESSFULLY ADDED!!\n"; print "sleep 3;\n"; print "cls();\n"; print "industry();\n"; } }
