Now I like the reverse if because it takes up one line
instead of four (I like braces on their own lines -
see else). But this error...
syntax error at
/usr2/login/fjg/hotspot_tracker/search_by_ip_or_mac.cgi
line 70, near "else"
...keeps coming up. Is there a way to keep the
reverse if and use an else (or something like it) that
anyone knows of? Thanks. ~Frank
No, there isn't. Not with 'else', at least. You could use a ternary
(hook) operator:
($match_type eq 'none') ?
display_nothing() :
display_something();
is like saying
if ($match_type eq 'none') {
display_nothing();
}
else {
display_something();
}
