Tried the double quotes, but then it ignores the $INPUT{field_name}
altogether, I think maybe something to do with it being HTML, as I have had
it going OK if I just have a simple text message like
$mymessage='this is the field $INPUT{field_name}';

Hmm... where are you getting that from? If the above code is embedded in
your program, changing
the single quote ' to a double quote " will cause $INPUT{field_name} to be
interpolated:
my $foo = "Ovid";
print "$foo\n";
print '$foo\n';
Output:
Ovid
$foo\n
You should be able to drop the regex entirely.

Someone asked me how to count to 10 in Perl:
push@A,$_ for reverse q.e...q.n.;for(@A){$_=unpack(q|c|,$_);@a=split//;
shift@a;shift@a if $a[$[]eq$[;$_=join q||,@a};print $_,$/for reverse @A
