RE: proper format for a label

[Flynn, Timothy J]

I agree,

        I changed my code to avoid using the goto.  What I didn't include in
my code segment is more if and while statements that would not make it drop
out.  I wrapped the whiles with if statements and a condition variable to
prevent too much excess processing..

Thanks!

I agree about not using goto's - they went out with day-glo VW Microbusses.
Apart from that, the code segment you included would fall through with or
without the goto.

        Hi All!

                I am using goto for the first time and I am having trouble
with the
        label format.  I have checked perldoc -f goto and perldoc -q label
with no
        success.  Here is an example of what I am doing..




        if (some condition) {

          if (some condition) {

            if (some case true) {

             goto ENDDISP;
           }
          }
        }

        ENDDISP:  (note the colon) 

        what is wrong?  When I comment out ENDDISP: it runs. # although then
the
        goto is meaningless.  What format does this label ENDDISP: have to
be in?

        Thanks!
        -Tim
