In which module did you find the `trim` and `rtrim` functions? Text::Trim perhaps? I use `for ($variable) { s/^\s+//; s/\s+$//; }` [download] to `trim` I can type that faster than looking-up the name of the module and checking the syntax of the functions. CountZero A program should be light and agile, its subroutines connected like a string of pearls. The spirit and intent of the program should be retained throughout. There should be neither too little or too much, neither needless loops nor useless variables, neither lack of structure nor overwhelming rigidity." - The Tao of Programming, 4.1 - Geoffrey James	[reply] [d/l] [select]
