Greetings fellow monks. I have a perl/CGI script which is behaving rather badly. From the apache logs, I get the following when the script is called: 

Use of uninitialized value in array dereference at (eval 20) line 15 (
+#1)
    
(W uninitialized) An undefined value was used as if it
were already defined.  It was interpreted as a "" or a 0,
but maybe it was a mistake.  To suppress this
warning assign a defined value to your variables.

I can't for the life of me work out what is wrong. The begining of the script is appended below. Any comments welcome. Regards, Stacy
