Not exactly. You need to use braces everytime. But you could use something like this if you have a single statement: print "ok" if $var == 1;instead of
if ($var == 1) { print "ok"; } Octavian----- Original Message ----- From: "Lamar Upshaw" <lupshaw@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

I need a little reminder and clarity about "If Else" statements.I only need to use the braces when there's more than one statement made based on the condition of the "if" statement, right?if ($a > 0) { $b =1; $c =2; } But, if only one statement is made, I don't need the braces? if ($a >0) $b = 1; With All Respect,Upshaw, Lamar T__________View the list's information and change your settings at //www.freelists.org/list/programmingblind
