Re^2: everyauction script error bidding errors

Is this section the problem because what it is im trying to do is;

my ($alias, $email, $bid, $time, $add1, $add2, $add3) = &read_bid($bid
+s[0]);
[download]

This section reads bid number 0 which in my case is the seller in my .dat files so bid 1 would be the first bidder. I need the script to read each individual bid however many there may be i.e 1 to 22 and pick out if the member who is logged in as form{'ALIAS'} has placed a bid which has been outbid. By using this code i can manualy enter the bidders bid in order however this is no good i need somthing to automatically do this;

my ($alias, $email, $bid, $time, $add1, $add2, $add3) = &read_bid($bid
+s[1]); ----- what ever number the bidder is
[download]

which i thought this section did;


for (my $i = $#bids; $i > 1; $i = 1) {
       my ($alias, $email, $bid, $time, $add1, $add2, $add3) = &read_b
+id($bids[$i]);
$time = sort ({ int $a <=> int $b } $time);

Try ... `if (@bids > 1){ for my $bid (1..$#bids){ my ($alias, $email, $bid, $time, $add1, $add2, $add3) = read_bid($ +bids[$bid]); } }` [download] As noted elsewhere, your sort on a scalar will not do what you are trying to do, since sort() works on a LIST. mkmcconn edit: fix artifacts in code copied from elsewhere.
