Did you pray this prayer?\n";<br>
Naaah, I didn't even read it. Just gave a peek. Not really interested in prayers.
I used strict and warnings and I believe the she bang line should work on most modern computers
Whoa! This is the cleanest and most correct Perl code you posted thus far, the only error being a spurious <br> tag that for perl is an attempt to read from the br filehandle:
aleph:~ [17:41:57]$ perl -c 600859.pl
Name "main::br" used only once: possible typo at 600859.pl line 30.
600859.pl syntax OK
aleph:~ [17:42:06]$ perl 600859.pl >/dev/null # A better place!
Name "main::br" used only once: possible typo at 600859.pl line 30.
readline() on unopened filehandle br at 600859.pl line 30.
Incidentally, for multiline strings you may be interested in HERE documents which are slightly less error prone and all in all, cleaner: look them up in perldoc perlop.

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).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
