I saying this should work: split '+', 'this+is+a+test'; Yes, I know how to fix it. I'm saying it _should_ work, not that it does. If split is followed by a string, the string should be quotemeta automatically. If it's followed by a pattern match (see `perldoc -f m`) then it should use pattern matching. -- __END__ Just my 0.00000002 million dollars worth, --- Shawn "For the things we have to learn before we can do them, we learn by doing them."
