Dave,
Your response dovetails nicely with my next question. The module I'm
working in begins as follows:
use warnings;
use strict;
use CGI qw/:standard center strong *big delete_all/;
After putting parentheses after my calls to "br", the program compiled
and started running. It barfed, though, at the following line:
$htmlString = p(center(strong("There are not any trains running on this
day.<br>Use the date dropdowns above to select a different day.")));
It complained that $Schedule::strong was undefined. As you
illustrated, changing "strong" to "CGI::strong" fixed that problem, and
it proceeded to complain about "$Schedule::center" being undefined.
I had thought that the "use CGI" line would tell Perl enough about
those functions that I wouldn't have to qualify them. What do I have
to do to avoid putting the package name before every subroutine that
doesn't come from the package I'm developing? For a complicated
program, I would imagine qualifying every subroutine call would get
very cumbersome!
Thanks once again!

P.S. In the little test program, if I leave the semicolon off the last
line, it compiles. If I put it on, it complains about the "br"
bareword. I'm using IndigoPerl.
