I downvoted this post because it's wrong. Please test your advice if you're not sure:

#!/usr/bin/perl -w use strict; sub foo { print "foo\n" } my $f = 'foo'; &$f;

I generally prefer a dispatch table:

my %ops = ( one => \&one, two => \&two, ); my $op = $q->param( 'op' ); die "Invalid operation '$op'\n" unless exists $ops{ $op }; $subs{ $op }->();

You can also mess with can, though it's less secure -- with the ops hash you can control exactly which subs can ever be called.

my $op = $q->param( 'op' ); my $sub = __PACKAGE__->can( $op ); die "Invalid op '$op'\n" unless $sub; $sub->();

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
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).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
