Hi Kumaran, Use strict is used to enforce declaration of variables before we use them. Here IN_FILE1 is file pointer variable which u are using and which is not declared before , That is the reason it is working fine when u have removed the use strict construct.
Thanks Arjun Deserve before you desire -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, March 30, 2005 1:28 PM To: M.L. PERL BEG Subject: General questions Hello, 1. I read on many Perl/CGI tutorial/articles that it is best to place and use CGI files in /cgi-bin/ directory than anywhere else, due to avoid many problems. Buy in our website, we have several subdomain and those are all use the same /cgi-bin/ directory, so now there are a lot of files populated there. So now what I have to do to reduce the management/maintanence problems. 2. I used "use strict", and I get error for the statement open(IN_FILE1, ">>test_records.txt"); Here the error is Bareword "IN_FILE1" not allowed while "strict subs" in use .... But if I remove "use strict", the program works well. So should I definately do not use "use strict" if the program want to handle I/O files? Thank you all. Greetings, R.
