Is there a simple way to reject any string that has extended characters in it? In other words, only accept the 88 (I think it's 88) regular keyboard characters and numbers. I can't find a simple way to do this.
--As for the rest, it is mine.
I'm sure there is a smart way, but here's a dumb idea:
my @characters = unpack('U*', $string); for @characters { if $_ > $max_Char_Value { # Do something } else # Do something else. } }
