[ic] How to Call a GlobalSub?

Thanks Mike,

Just tried your suggestion:

[perl subs=1]
test_global_sub()
[/perl]

and here is what I get in the error log:

192.168.0.84 e3JGkEeq:192.168.0.84 - [26/February/2001:18:58:22 -0800]
store3 /cgi-bin/store3/test.html Runtime error: Unable to create sub named
"" at //usr/lib/interchange/lib/Vend/Interpolate.pm line 1656.
>

Why is it trying to create a sub when it is presumably already declared?
I'm running Interchange 4.6.3 under Red Hat 6.2.

Make it:

 [perl subs=1]
 test_global_sub()
 [/perl]

You almost never want interpolate=1 in a perl tag, either, nowadays.
