I've got some code that uses quite a few bits of perl cleverness. I'd like to use strict, but &{'do_'.$type}
gets me the error <code
>
Can't use string ("do_somestring") as a subroutine ref while "strict refs"</code>
I'd rather not have to use a load of if's to get round this, and I tried untainting $type with a regexp, but it looks like strict just doesn't like the method at all. Is there a prettier way of doing it ?

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).

are good places to start.
