It doesn't, but it was a mistake that indicated ignorance and the right thing to do was to correct it so they won't make the mistake again. > > Please go to http://perl-begin.org/ and find a good resource to learn > > Perl.

Sorry, I may still have been in a bad mood from earlier. In any case, this quote was right on the mark in this case, as the OP was obviously inventing syntax. > If you have no other solution for an OP rather than > posting a link to one of your sites and insulting them, I suggest you > refrain from sending that reply, it is not helping. My reply also contained a factual answer why what they tried did not work and how to remedy it (you trimmed it in your reply). And http://perl-begin.org/ , while being one of my sites, is nevertheless exactly what the OP needs at this point. I may have insulted them and I apologise for that (although I was quoting an old joke from MJD), but my response was still helpful.
