Re^2: Passing values to external packages

That makes complete sense! Thanks for the fast response and advice on posting tags.
It gets a bit more complicated now because I need to append the value of a variable coming from an XML file to part of the function call value as follows:

#...
$value = $verify->{content}; #string value pulled from XML file ($valu
+e = STRING)
$wc3_type = W3C::.$value #will not work

How can I append the scalar $value to the function call without it being a quoted value?

TIA AGAIN!

You could use a lookup table. `my %validators = ( string => W3C::STRING, ... ); my $type = $verify->{content}; my $validator = $validators{lc($type)}; if (!defined($validator) \|\| !dvalid($search, $validator)) { die }` [download]	[reply] [d/l]
