[Bioperl-l] EMBL format field

[Zhi-Qiang Ye]

That's weird. I also met this problem. I tried a embl-format file like this:

ID   CB271253; SV 1; linear; mRNA; EST; INV; 591 BP.
XX
AC   CB271253;
XX
DT   24-FEB-2003 (Rel. 74, Created)
DT   24-FEB-2003 (Rel. 74, Last updated, Version 1)
XX
DE   taa17c02.x2 Hydra EST -II Hydra magnipapillata cDNA 3' similar to
DE   SW:OPSD_RABIT P49912 RHODOPSIN. ;, mRNA sequence.

from: http://www.ebi.ac.uk/cgi-bin/dbfetch?db=embl&id=CB271253&style=raw

the $seq object's   ->id, ->display_id  are "unkown id" ...
