Sorry about that. Here are the two snippets of code with the appropriate tags around them?

The param stuff: 

if (! param ) 
{ show_form(); }
elsif (defined param ('file_chosen)) 
{ parse_text(); }
elsif (defined param('$temp_name')) 
{print print_results(); }

The radio button group: 
while ($counter<=$#doc_offset_array) { 
@temp_array = @{$array_of_arrays[$counter]};
$temp_name =$doc_offset_array[$counter];
foreach $i (@temp_array) {
print radio_group(-name=>'$temp_name', 
-values=>[@temp_array],
-linebreak=>'true'); 
}
}
}

Actually, using no quotes in both the radio group and the param function still prevents the elsif statement from being executed, though the radio buttons print OK. Using double quotes in both sets of code also prints radio buttons OK, but prevents the elsif statement from being executed. L
