Yes. And in each iteration you are reading one line and incrementing the
number by one. In other words: $ii is a counter for the line number.
$. does that for you automatically already.

>>>while ($myline=<MYFILE>)
[...]
>>> $ii=$ii+1;

And how would that affect the output of your Perl script?

JE> And how would that affect the output of your Perl script?

as i said (and guessed correctly) he was only looking at the browser and
not the page source or running the script directly. somehow his wacky
html (not going there) obscured his counter.
