Howdy,

I'm looking to have a one liner version of this:

my $xid = '';
$xid = param('xid') if param('xid') =~ m/^\d+$/;

Basically, if the param is numeric then assign it to $xid, other wise '' (IE empty but declared) Some thing like:

my $xid = param('xid') if param('xid') =~ m/^\d+$/ || '';

But I know that that is not right, what am I missing?

I could do the ? : ; dance but I'm not sure 'my' would stay in the scope I need it in.

TIA
