Kristofer and everybody else, "br" is successfully used without parentheses in the first snippet I posted. I don't believe that parentheses are required for subroutine calls that don't have arguments, although I suppose I should use them since I'm mainly a C++ programmer and so I should be as consistent as possible between the two languages.
I tried another program to illustrate the "br" problem. Here is the entire program: #!/usr/bin/perl use warnings; use strict; use CGI qw/:standard center *big delete_all/; use ScheduleDay; use Train; package Brtest; my $testString = br; When I compile this, I get the following error: Bareword "br" not allowed while "strict subs" in use at brtest.pm line 12. When I comment the "package Brtest;" line, I don't get the error. What is happening? Thanks again! Rob P.S. I am cross-posting this to the [EMAIL PROTECTED] list because this is looking as though it's not a CGI issue. P.P.S. to any list administrator who may read this: Whenever I click "Reply", the original sender is automatically put into my "To:" box, but "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" is not. The same is true for the "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" list. Can that be changed? __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
