Or alternatively

$rose{smell} = $rose{name} eq "rose" ? "sweet" : "as sweet";

I actually doubted on that one... I considered this as well... `$Rose = name($Rose) ? $Rose : Smell($Sweet);` Since it would match "that which we call a rose By any other name would smell as sweet" better... Greetz Beatnik ... Quidquid perl dictum sit, altum viditur.	[reply] [d/l]
