i know this should be a simple step or two that i'm missing, and i
haven't been able to figure it out from reading yet...
i have the following code:
$sth = $mysql_dbh->prepare("select subroutine_pointer from
$database.equipment_manufacturer where
manufacturer=\"$remedy_eqpt_mfgr\"");
$sth->execute();
$subroutine_pointer = $sth->fetchrow_array();
no strict "refs";
&$subroutine_pointer() unless $subroutine_pointer eq "";
use strict "refs";
this pulls a phrase from the database that matches a subroutine name
that i want to call based on certain other criteria, then displays that
sub's output to a web page. this works fine as is but i want to learn
how to restructure this so i don't have to use "no strict" and "use
strict" around the call. all suggestions welcome *s*
joe
