David,
I posted the information I did because I saw that your post was on worst nodes and no one had explained why they were downvoting your post. Without someone taking the time to explain some of the etiquette here, there is no way for you to learn.
I've found that good search skills are critical to successful development. I think we are very lucky that PerlMonks has a search feature. We also have Super Search available when you think it's on the site but you can't find it. This is an exhaustive search engine that will find it if it exists on the site. I hope this information helps you in the future.

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.
