Yes. Copy the code you posted in your original question (aka OP, "Original Post", not to be confused... er, well, often confused because ambiguous with "Original Poster") and compare it, letter-by-letter, punct-by-punct; and space-by-space, if necessary, with the code that's giving you the problem. Doing so will reveal your typo.

Then correct it or paste what you copied over your original code; add use strict; use warnings (not needed with 5.16 and higher update: if the script includes the line use 5.01n; where n is a relevant decimal digit) at the top, just after the hashbang. Voila; all should run as you expected, originally.

Hint: when posting, copy and paste rather than retype. Doing so will save you the pain of discovering later that you've corrected an error or created a new one by retyping.

      Can't say whether my hasty comment is applicable to Strawberry's implementation, but, clarifying and correcting the parenthetical statement at least with respect to my flavor (ActiveState):

        Thanks for the clarification, that does the trick.
