Well, that code snippet works... I just tried it.

dash2@cherokee:~ > perl


$modtyp = 9;
if ($modtyp == 9)
{
print " response1";
}
elsif ($modtyp == 10)
{
print " response2\n";
}

So, as Sherlock Holmes said, once you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be true. Check elsewhere in your code. Check you are printing newlines, cos sometimes perl doesn't print out until you hit a newline. Check you are printing to where you think you are - did you select some other filehandle? Check that $modtyp is exactly what you think it is by doing print "modtyp is '$modtyp'". Debug. Fix. Good luck.
