If you're editing files on Windows and running them on a Mac, you might need to check your line endings -- is there a real carriage-return between the comment and the "1;" line? -Simon	[reply]

You aren't the first, nor the last, to be nailed by line ending issues: don't worry about it. :-) --- $world=~s/war/peace/g	[reply]

Welcome to the club. This sort of thing is embarassing, but consider this - you'll probably never make this particular mistake again...	[reply]

Hi, A thing that has nothing to do with your problem, but I won't use the indirect method call when you're not dealing with OO. Tester::Test->test() Because that way your first argument in the @_ array will be the Package name 'Tester::Test'. Use the normal method Tester::Test::test() or use the Exporter module to import the subroutines into your namespace. Tester::Test.pm `package Tester::Test; use strict; use Exporter qw/ import /; our @EXPORT_OK = qw/ test /; sub test{ print "test"; } 1;` [download] t.pl `#!/usr/bin/perl -w use strict; use CGI; use Tester::Test qw/test/; # if you want to import it into your namesp +ace Tester::Test::test(); # or directly test() if you have imported it exit;` [download] Regards, \|fire\| at irc.freenode.net	[reply] [d/l] [select]
