Brother pc88mxer,

Huh?

I'm confused by this snippet of code:

for each row $row:

That usage of each looks nothing like the perldoc on each. And I don't understand what row is doing as a bareword. Or the colon after $row.

Could you point me to a place in the docs that would tell me what you're doing here? My thrashing around in the online documentation hasn't gotten me anywhere.

"for each row $row:" seems like a comment, where either the "#" prefix was missed, or got included in the code section due to laziness of the poster.	[reply]

Sorry, it's pseudo code. I didn't know how the OP was generated the rows of the database, so I just wrote it out in English. I guess I been influenced too much by Knuth's Literate Programming.	[reply]
