$searchStr="NOT YET AVALIABLE";
# $var is the string in which u r trying to search the pattern $searchStr...
if($var =~ /$searchStr/){
## contains the string..
}else{
### doesnt contain the string...
}
The result of the =~ operation is one of the following:
A nonzero value, or true, if the pattern is found in the
string...0, or false, if the pattern is not matched
to ignore case... if($var =~ /$searchStr/i)
hope this solves u r query..
