LOL. I shoulda known! Really, I'm a perl/mod_perl newbie with a C background and I've really been bitten by the Perl bug lately. It's been a goal of mine to start playing with it for some time, but only recently have I started _making_ time to do it. > > . . . > > Probably you are the first one that needed PerlSetVar to work with "\n".

Interesting. It hadn't occurred to me that mod_perl would simply append the values if Foo had several assigned. I'll consider that too, but I think the hack suggested by Steven fits more neatly with other substitutions I am doing with the string. Thanks for the ideas.
