I had the following regular expression to get the extension from a file name:
<code> $extension = $filename; $extension =~ s/(^.+\.)([^\.]+)$/$2/; </code> But it didn't work (in case the $filename didn't have an extension); so I had to add the following line: <code> $extension = "" if (!$1); </code> What is wrong with my regular expression? How can it be done in a single regular expression? -- Ahmed Moustafa http://pobox.com/~amoustafa -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
