You're getting there, but you've still shown no code for this. You seem to want the first 7 characters after the last slash. This can be done with one line, but I'm not going to give it to you. You have to demonstrate that you've at least attempted to write it. Only then will I show you how I might try to solve this problem. -- Chris Devers -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <http://learn.perl.org/> <http://learn.perl.org/first-response>
