Re: (jeffa) Re: sprintf() and CGI

Well, but I still find it strange that sprintf("%b") works right from the command line, but fails from CGI...

I understand the "%b" is a recent (5.6.0) feature, so maybe no one noticed yet this behavior...

Sounds like your CGIs are using a different version of Perl than you get from your command-line. Change your script to also print out `$]` (and perhaps "@INC") to see. - tye (but my friends call me "Tye")	[reply] [d/l]

tye, you nailed it! Sun ships Perl v5.003 in /usr/bin/perl, and I ended up installing 5.6.1 on /usr/local/bin ... Thanks!!!	[reply]
