Subject: How to skip over a blank line


Hi everyone,

I am parsing a file and need to recognize when I have come to a blank line.
Can
you tell me how to do this? Here is my code so far:

while ( defined($fileLine = <IN>) ) {

        chomp ($fileLine);

        #if this line is blank, go to next line

        #if ($fileLine

        print "\nOne line: " . $fileLine;
}


Thank you,
Kathy
