Thanks alot guys. I already had -w and use strict;, so I am going to have to dig into my code a little bit more. But you defintely have a point - I need to convert PDQ.

However, just really quickly, I have a question for clairification: when using the my $cgi = CGI::new(); method, varibles can be accessed by using $cgi->param(...);, correct?

Also, what would be the best way to go about converting programs that maybe be in excess of 1,000 lines to using the above stated method?

Thanks for all the help!!
