They're warnings, not errors. The warning is that you've used a variable like $mday, but not used it anywhere else in your script, and Perl thinks you may be making a typo. (It's good that you have -w turned on, but you also need "use strict;") Ways to get rid of the error: 1. Use "my" to declare the variables. my ($sec,$min,$hour,$mday,$mon,$year,$wday,$yday,$isdst)=localtime(time); 2. Use undef in place of the variables you aren't using: (undef,$min,$hour,undef,undef,undef,undef,undef,undef)=localtime(time); or just (you can remove trailing unused elements): (undef,$min,$hour)=localtime(time); 3. or even better, use an array slice: ($min, $hour) = (localtime)[1,2]; -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
