in reply to To goto or not to goto

Perhaps a next would keep you from having to use a goto here.

# # Loop through quotes array and upload each file in the array. # MY_LOOP: foreach my $quote (@quotes) { system("cls"); emphasize("Sending quote: $quote"); my $return = $ftp->put("$quote"); # # If the upload completed $return should == $quote # and we can move the file to a backup folder. # if ($return == $quote) { + # Needs testing!!!!!!!!!!!!!! move("$quote", "${new_dir}\\$quote") or warn "move failed: + $!"; } else { while ( &connect_ras() ) {} # ShouldI place a goto here and a label at the beginning? next MY_LOOP ; } } disconnect_ftp(); }
Note: this is untested, but I think it fits with your intent.

Update: After reading the above posts, I'm not sure if you want redo or next. Use redo if you want to skip back to the start of the block without re-evaluating the conditional. Use next if you want to skip to the end of the block, so that the conditional is re-evaluated for the next iteration. Hope that makes sense. :-)
