Precisely my question. Why, cybär? :-)

Have a look at Dru's homenode, to his section "Tips on posting"

Read point number 4:

4. Explain what the problem is and include any error messages.

Saying "it doesn't work" won't get you anywhere, because we don't have any clue as to what is wrong with it, but, if OTOH, you explain what it is doing wrongly, for instance, and perhaps include any error messages that might being generated, we will probably be able to help :-)

Don't take this the wrong way; you're new to the monastery and you obviously don't know how it works. Follow my tip ;-) Tell us how and why it doesn't work. Then we'll try to help you with the code.

Ohm and speaking of code: always use strict; and use warnings;, and indentation is also helpful.
