I would like to suggest to the originator of this post that he considers one Perl's case-type structures instead of all of the elsif statements:
SWITCH: { if (test1) {do something; last SWITCH;} if (test2) {do something; last SWITCH;} if (test3) {do something; last SWITCH;} ... } I rarely use elsif's and much prefer a case statement, which might be made more efficient than a series of if/elsif's.
