Gentle Monks, I have a Perl script that creates a list of URLs and formats them as hyperlinks for display, problem is the original array address is the first value; how do I get rid of it? Here is the code:
my $jobdirectory = "../jobs/"; my $linklist = joblist($jobdirectory); foreach my $jobInDirectory (@$linklist) { next unless ($jobInDirectory =~ m/\.html$/); $linklist = $linklist . '<a href="http://post/jobs/' . $jobInDirec +tory . '">' . $jobInDirectory . '</a>' . '<br />'; } open (LISTING, '>> ../jobs/index.html'); print LISTING $cgi->start_html( -title => 'Job Postings') . '<div id="main">' . $linklist . '</div>' . $cgi->end_html . "\n";
Here is the problem part of the output:
ARRAY(0x8187600)SP_HT_54.html SP_HT_59.html SP_HT_53.html SP_HT_52.html SP_HT_55.html
It's all good, with the exception of that unwanted "ARRAY(0x8187600)".
Thanks and obeisances,
-t.b.b.

In reply to Array address returned as part of list by t.b.b.
