Hello,
under Windows with ActiveState Perl i have a strange problem with a regex:
Assuming the following String:
my $Data = Hello, i am a litte String.$ Please format me.$$$ I am the end
of the String.$$ And i am the last!
The regex should replace $ with the string br, $$ with p
Hello,
my $Data = Hello, i am a litte String.$ Please format me.$$$ I am the end
of the String.$$ And i am the last!
The regex should replace $ with the string br, $$ with p and $$$ with
brbr (please don't think about the why)
If tried to use the following:
$data =~ s/\$\$\$/brbr/gm; #should
.$$ And i am the last!;
It will solve your problem.
Thanks,
Seema

Holger,
This worked for me note that you need to escape the $ characters in your string. The 3398 numberis actually the PID of the perl process returned from the special variable $$ ... since you didn't escape the $ characters..
my $Data = "" i am a litte String.\$ Please format me.\$\$\$ I

Holger,
Actually $ is a special character in string in perl. So, if the $ is
there in the input,
you will have to always write it with the leading escape character.
So, make your input will be like this,
my $data = Hello, i am a litte
