I meant in general. I don't feel (as I said before) that excessive ref testing is appropriate in situations like this. But if you want to be anal, and throw your own exceptions on the wrong types of refs, then Scalar::Util lets you avoid having to reinvent the ref-testing wheel, mostly. -- John Douglas Porter __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
