Does this work?
split(/(;|\/+)/,$authors[$x]) -----Original Message----- From: Shaun Bramley [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, September 25, 2002 10:01 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Help with regular expressions within a split statement I have data that for some god foresaken reason is using two or three methods of delimitting names. Some are delimitted using '//' others with ';'. I have tried using @names = split( /(;)|(\/\/)/, $authors[$x]); however this doesn't have the intended result. Is this possible? or am I doing something wrong?? please help Shaun -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
