Could wrap it in either a uc or lc like lc($email) eq lc($name_list[10]) or uc 
or
                use reg like $email=~ /^$name_list[10]$/i 

Wags ;)

Subject: ignoring case when comparing two vars


I am comapring e-mail addesses in this fashion:

if ($email eq $name_list[10]) { whatever }

but i just realized that the email address can be the same but the case
different and it won't match.  How can I ignore the case for the purpose
of comparison?

Thanks!
