in reply to Re: single line if conditional
in thread single line if conditional

it fails not storing anything in the database. I am using strict and warnings but no-go.

I have a form with a field 'maxsize' and a button 'Submit'. 

my $maxsize = param('maxsize');

if (param('Submit'))
{

  if ($maxsize ne "")
{

$files{"$name"} = "this or that" if $name ne "";
print "somethign should have worked";  # this prints!
}

}

    assuming that the lastest code is a copying error and $name should read $maxsize, then the problem is not in the if statement, it is later in the code when you use %files to do something.
    modifying your print to include $files{$maxsize} would verify this.
    If the $name is in your existing code, then that explains your problem. Because $maxsize is the variable with the data.
