From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Raful Mr Mitchell H Sent: Friday, February 01, 2008 9:26 AM To: Activeperl (E-mail) Subject: stat, readdir, opendir and friends I have tried using both DirHandle as well as the tradition opendir and readdir to get the mode. Depending on the directory I open, directories are somtimes found and sometimes they are skipped. However, the .. is never skipped over and is identified as a dircotry. Any ideas?
