Good Afternoon, Wondering if anyone could help me with this or enlighten me on another way to go about it.
I have a string that has various white space (tabs, spaces, etc) at the end of it. I want to find the last real char [0-9a-zA-Z] and then use chop or chomp to remove the whitespace. I've tried: rindex($file, "t"); which of course works if the last char is a 't', but I certainly cannot always be assured of this. However, none of the following word char expressions are working: rindex($file, "/[0-9a-zA-Z]/"); rindex($file, /[0-9a-zA-Z]/); rindex($file, [0-9a-zA-Z]); rindex($file, /[\w]/); ....so either I'm doing it wrong or I can't use a regular expression within rindex. (My vote goes for the former!) Thanks! -R __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
