Your pattern didn't include parentheses, so there's no $1. Do you want something like this, maybe? s!([^\x20-\x7e])! '&#' . ord($1) . ';' !ge; Or you could just use HTML::Entities. http://search.cpan.org/~gaas/HTML-Parser-3.56/lib/HTML/Entities.pm Cheers! --Tom Phoenix Stonehenge Perl Training -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://learn.perl.org/
