(jeffa) 3Re: Ping Monitor with Email Notification

"may I humbly ask what I've overlooked?"

The fact that i was half-asleep when i wrote that? :D

May i humbly say, thanks? I will leave my code untouched, but you are absolutely correct. I wrote my code by modifying linebacker's, but i forgot to add that feature. Thanks for catching it, and better yet, offering a solution.

However, don't initialize an array like this:

my @array = []; # use empty parens instead ()
[download]

That declared a new array whose first element is an anonymouse array reference. I have been bitten by that error before. ;)

Or better yet don't use parens at all, since a freshly declared array is empty by definition. Makeshifts last the longest.	[reply]
