Ok I fixed that issue, can't even remember why I tried to declare it in the eval block I guess that is what I get for writing code while half asleep. The only other change that I made was I uncommitted out the "push @errors, "<p>Error: Double check your email address</p>" if $@;" line and here is the new error I get [Mon Dec 7 22:24:30 2009] register.cgi: Illegal character in prototype for main::form_verify : @user at register.cgi line 43. [Mon Dec 7 22:24:30 2009] register.cgi: main::form_verify() called too early to check prototype at register.cgi line 36.

There is something about this push statement that Perl doesn't like, the only thing I can think of is the if $@ part. -- "We must plan for freedom, and not only for security, if for no other reason than only freedom can make security more secure."
