Did you forget a curly brace after the else? Or is that just a typo in your
email?

Subject: [wdvltalk] Perl question

Hi all,

I am trying to change a program that I wrote a long time ago and I keep 
getting a "500 Server Error" when I make changes.

The plan is to have the program check if the total of the order is over 
$50. If so, the S&H charge is $5. If not, the S&H charge is $8. What I 
have so far is:

# Find out what state is selected and get the corresponding percentage 
to use
 my $selectedState=$q->param('state');
 my $shippingCharge=$shipcost{$selectedState}*$total+5;
 
which works fine. When I try and change it to:

# Find out what state is selected and get the corresponding percentage 
to use
 my $selectedState=$q->param('state');
 
 if ($total < 50) { 
     my $shippingCharge=$shipcost{$selectedState}*$total+8;
 }
 else
     my $shippingCharge=$shipcost{$selectedState}*$total+5;
 }
 
 I get the error. Can anyone tell me why I am getting the error? The 
rest of the program works fine - just falls apart when I add those lines in.

Thanks,
Riva
