I wanted to show an iterative process - that would be able to collect a bunch of data from a source, and put each line of data into a parenthesis .... you want my $input="Para 1.\nPara 2.\nPara 3."; #we want to blow out the \n out my $p ='<p>'; my $endP = '</p>'; my $nl = '\n'; $input =~ s/$nl/$endP$p/g; my $output = $p . $input . $endP ; print "$output\n"; which generates <p>Para 1.</p><p>Para 2.</p><p>Para 3.</p> sorry for not getting it the first time around. ciao drieux --- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
