Re: Using require

By not creating it a lexical variable. Leave the my off. Of course, you either have to get rid of the strictness, use use vars, or use a fully qualified name.

Well, you don't shows it what you did, nor the error message you got, so it's hard to respond. However, you say `use vars;`, which suggest you are not using this pragma right. Do you know what `use vars` does? If not, why do you use it in your program? Never, ever use something in your program just because you heard it on Perlmonks, read it in the newspaper, or saw in on television. First read the manual page - and only when you understand you are allowed to use it. Abigail	[reply] [d/l] [select]
