Output an <img> tag on the HTML page whose src attribute references a
CGI script. But that's not a Perl question, and so it doesn't belong here.

Many thanks to Jeff, David, and Abigail for their responses. To
summarize: my statement above is not right, because Text::CSV_XS does
correctly handle PC-style CSV.
I will cook up a modification to the current FAQ which refers people
to this module and the related DBD::CSV when they need to parse this
type of file, and post it here for review before sending it to TomC.
Thanks again.

Mark,
You haven't mentioned it, but is there some reason you can't extract
just the chunk that you suspect is different?
Alternatively you could do a simpler implementation than what sounds
like has been done under CPAN (haven't looked at it myself): Put each
file into an array and run down the arrays, comparing 1 to 1, 2 to 2,
until you find lines that don't match. Then compare n to n+1, n+1 to
n, and so on.
I wrote a utility that did this in C back in '85 and found it most
useful. Mind, this algorithim is not rigorous: it may get fooled on
repetitive blocks.

Yes, I did a long time ago. I almost love all the manpages - well I would
love them if there would have been more example code when I started to
use Perl 2 years ago. But this code snippet is adapted from the
documentation in DB_File.pm, chapter "Changing the BTREE sort order", so
it should be ok for sorting a tied hash.
Nevertheless, I'll change the special sorting with your suggested
"spaceship operator" (funny name for "<=>" :-)
But my original question was how to sort two (or more) tied hashes
differently, when I need them at the same time. Is this possible, and if
it is: how?

Oh dear, someone else whose brain cells have been taken over by the evil
empire.
In the iso standard character codings, which are the generally-agreed
convention for open data interchange with 8-bit codings, the character
codes between 127 and 159 decimal are reserved for control functions.
If you're going to propose the use of a proprietary coding, you better
first make sure that the recipient has agreed to accept it, and you
better make sure that you put the appropriate IANA-registered charset
name into your MIME header. (There's an extra joke in there, for those
who understand the issue).

Use quantum effects.

sleep 1 while $id =~ /\W/;

This works faster if you sprinkle some grounded uranium over your RAM

I want to search through a file and strip a range of lines beginning with a

extract these lines and maybe print them out, but I do not quite get how to
use this in combination with a substitution to strip them away. I have tried
this:
$_ =~ s//pattern1/ ... /pattern2/\b//g;
and naturally it does not work because I do not fully understand all the

Can you ping using ping? If not, it isn't Net::Ping's problem.

This is garbage. If (and this is the point) your posting is genuinely
relevant to more than one group, then crossposting was the right way to
do it in 1993 just as it is today, and multi-posting is wrong now just
as it was then. Anyone who understands how usenet works will be in no
doubt about this.
In most cases, of course, the mistake is to cross-post too widely, or to
cross-post to a specific and a misc group, which (as a general rule and
with occasional exceptions) is considered inappropriate.

I'm not aware of anything having changed in principle in that regard
since I started using usenet in the early 1990's, though there have
certainly been shifts in detail. news.announce.newusers has the
information that you desperately need.

Maybe it's all the same job.

Message-Id: <null>
Administrivia:
The Perl-Users Digest is a retransmission of the USENET newsgroup
comp.lang.perl.misc. For subscription or unsubscription requests, send
the single line:
subscribe perl-users
or:
unsubscribe perl-users
to almanac@ruby.oce.orst.edu.
| NOTE: The mail to news gateway, and thus the ability to submit articles
| through this service to the newsgroup, has been removed. I do not have
| time to individually vet each article to make sure that someone isn't
| abusing the service, and I no longer have any desire to waste my time
| dealing with the campus admins when some fool complains to them about an
| article that has come through the gateway instead of complaining
| to the source.
To submit articles to comp.lang.perl.announce, send your article to
clpa@perl.com.
To request back copies (available for a week or so), send your request
to almanac@ruby.oce.orst.edu with the command "send perl-users x.y",
where x is the volume number and y is the issue number.
For other requests pertaining to the digest, send mail to
perl-users-request@ruby.oce.orst.edu. Do not waste your time or mine
sending perl questions to the -request address, I don't have time to
answer them even if I did know the answer.
