That is the 'flattening list' problem. We can't do this:
MySubRoutine( @List, $Scalar1, $Scalar2 ):
sub MySubRoutine {
my (@List, $Scalar1, $Scalar2 ) = @_;
# The list variable contains all of @_
# the scalars don't get passed as expected
}
So a list parameter shouldn't have any other parameter following (unless
it's a list referrence).
In the task below, this might be helpful:
@quote = split ( /\|/, $array );
for my $quote ( @quote ) {
Win32::MsgBox( $quote, 1, $Title );
}

Question - Win32::MsgBox

I have question.... in this script... why did I have to place the [0] in
the $quote?? (last line...)
use Win32;
$Title = "Message Of The Day";
$File = "moti.txt";
$Message = "Message of the Day";
#print "Content-type: text\n\n";
open (QUOTEFILE, "<$File") || die print "Could not open quote file";
@line=<QUOTEFILE>;
close (QUOTEFILE);
srand;
$array = $line[int rand(@line)];
@quote = split (/\|/, $array);
Win32::MsgBox($quote[0], 1, $Title);
