I don't see how C could ever fail to undef $foo, modulo
bugs in perl. A hell of a lot of code wouldn't work, then.
My practice is to never init lexicals to undef/(), and only to '' or 0 if

The regex engine is seeing extra stuff in $string and thinking that you are
trying to build an expression with it. To get Perl to handle $string as straight
text, you need to quote it like this:

Hi all,
Can somebody show me how to use regular expression to subtitute a string
with speacial character such as [* , ?] in it ?
for example
$string = 'test ? test';
$input = 'Start test ? test End';
$change = 'Change';
$input =~ s/$string/$change/g;
After change, I expect $input = 'Start C

Everytime I reload the script, I get the same hash refere

There's another factor, here, unfortunately: -w warnings.
I personally never use -w, unfortunately, because it warns about not only variables
being used before they are first set (usually a good thing to warn about) but also the

This always worked for me:
SetHandler perl-script
PerlHandler ModuleName
But maybe it worked for reasons I don't understand :)
