" . "Is this acceptable?" ); ## If the value was good, print it out, otherwise, ## clear the entry if (lc($bValue) eq "yes") { print $eValue . " was accepted\n"; } else { $entry->delete(0, "end"); } })->pack; MainLoop; -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
