Try to use "use strict;" statement at the beginning of your script to avoid undefined variables.

The message is: Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at... Despite the message, the script does what it is supposed to do. I would like to know if this message is a harmless message or is it something that needs to be investigated and found a solution for? Thanks.

It seems you are trying to use a variable that's never been defined. This isn't necessarily correct for your case, but something like: my $name = $q->param('name') || ''; might be a solution. --Jon -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://learn.perl.org/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://learn.perl.org/
