You need a regular expression like 
Until ($selection =~ m/^1$|^2$|^9$/) {
Do some stuff
}

The ^ and $ keep them from enterin say '12' or '109' or 'I love 1 monkey'.

Remove them if you only care that they at least type the digit and don't care if 
there's extra stuff

I am trying to make a small menu for a script and the options are 1 or 2 or 9.  I have 
it written like this
 
until ($selection == '1|2|9'){
     do some stuff
}
 
 
and it wont work.  I know it is something simple but I am a little simple myself today 
and don't know what I am doing wrong.
 
 
Thanks,
 
Dylan
