Re: Ternary Regex Evaluation
Yes, we didn't even think about that until after someone else on this list mentioned
it. We fixed it.

my $title;
open (FH, HTML_HOME . $directory . $content) or die Cannot open file : $!;
while (FH){
chomp;
$title=m/title(.*)\/title/i?$1:$content;
}
print $title;
But, I don't see how this will work to well if this file has more than one line
(unless the title tag is on the last line of the file...) You are iterating over
every line, and constantly replacing $title with each pass...
Maybe add this below the $title=m/...:
last if($title ne $content);

Subject: Ternary Regex Evaluation
Hello,
I am trying to do some pattern matching in a ternary evaluation, but it does not seem
to work. If I place the regex into a structured if statement, it evaluates fine, but
not in a ternary evaluation. Here is what I have so far.
my $title;
...
...
...
open FH, HTML_HOME . $directory . $content or die Cannot open file : $!;
while (FH)
{
chomp;
(m/title(.*)\/title/i) ? $title = $1 : $title = $content;
}
print $title;
Does anyone have any suggestions?
TIA

Re: Ternary Regex Evaluation
Yes that would work, but I was really curious as to why the ternary operation does not
work. In fact, none of my other ternary operations seem to work. Is there something
wrong with my syntax?
Thanks,

Sorry, I am poor in English, but is this what you want ?
$title = $content;
while (FH)
{ chomp;
$title = $1 if ( /title(.+)\/title/i );
} print $title;
Rgds,
Connie

Is there something wrong with my syntax? probably. try putting each true/false statement inside a parenthesis. ps - this really doesn't have anything to do with cgi, so a question like this would be better off asked on a different list. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
