that, and then changing the input field to that netmask.  The sanity
check for a prefix entry happens in the main block of the if test.  All
that has to happen is make sure it's an int between 0 and 32 inclusive.
 If that passes, we know we have valid input to pass to prefix2netmask.

No problem and thanks a lots for your explanation.
