Whoa, there, big fella.
You've made a mistake that is pretty common to PerlMonks newcomers ... you seem to think of this place as a free vending machine for answers. Sometimes when people run into a response they don't like, they figure they can just kick the machine and push a few more buttons and they'll get free candy (or even a Pony).
But PerlMonks is a community of real people, and certain rules of courtesy apply. If you are the one who needs help, then you should be humble and respectful even if the answer you receive doesn't please you. Additionally, you need to be careful how you treat some of the more respected monks. You chose to be snippy to davorg without apparently noticing that he has a fairly good reputation around here. This means that many people have been helped in the past by his postings, and it follows that if you are rude to him, many will consider you to be an undeserving jerk. Your posts will tend to be downvoted and your poor reputation will encourage many monks to ignore you.
You've started out badly, but it isn't too late to change. Get a clue, practice some humility, and you'll find that there are lots of monks who would love to help you and who can offer you considerable insight across a wide spectrum.

perumal first be cool.
Inspite of your harsh comment on davorg, you are getting some good answers from rodion and Joost. This indicates that there are lot of monks to help you and they are kind enough to give the answer.
I think you are not reading any links adviced by the monks such as Welcome to the Monastery! Make yourself at home., How (Not) To Ask A Question, About the PerlMonks FAQ etc.
If you give your exact requirement clearly, you ll definitely get good replies to accomplish your requirement. You should put some effort and workaround on your requirement, before asking your question.
There would have been some problem in Office or your Boss would have fired at you for delay or things like that, but you should not show your anger here and this is not correct place for that. Just be cool for some moment and after you get rid off your problem, you come here and chat with monks and find the solution for your problem (in Perl) :)
After reading all the links adviced by the monks, definitely you ll feel ashamed of your behavior.
You just spend some time in reading other posts and sections in PM which helps you to grow good. Just forget everything and be part of our Monastery.

Ofcourse, since no-one understands your question that attitude won't get you any good answers.
Have you actually READ the link provided? It's full of good advice, even if the title can be understood as slightly provocative...
Cheers.

Just going over some small facts.
- You asked a question.
- Some very blunt advice, maybe not covered in sugar, was given to you on the clarity of your question.
- Instead, you push back saying you don't want to help him understand your request, so that you can't get the help you need?
c'mmon. really. you want help and we're here to give it. work with us here.
