john - I think he was actually referring to the URL one where I had
used the tighter standard RegEx:

        /^\d+$/

and clearly his feverish brow rushed to type, and mistyped
just a bit....

how galant - to try to rescue me from that BRUTE!
but only technically correct.

since if you set

        $val = "3.145BOB";

you will notice that this would slide through as true.

but would be considered as FALSE as 3.14

        if ( $val =~ /^\d+$/ and $val > 0 and $val <11) {

so the shift to using the is_numeric() as that
really really brutish cad suggested.....
