Re: Using =~ with a list

[Lysander]

This doesn't seem to work... My webhost is running PERL 5.004_04
I tried just the following test.pl

#!/usr/local/bin/perl -w
use strict;

  my @body;

  $body[0] = "Test Data:\n";
  $body[1] = "foo\n";
  $body[2] = "I should be below bar\n";

  s/foo/bar/ for @body;

  print @body;

and I get

syntax error at ./test.pl line 10, near "s/foo/bar/ for "
Execution of ./test.pl aborted due to compilation errors.

Thoughts?
