Hello,

this one has been driving me nuts and I'm sure it's something very simple I maybe overlooking. I need to assign a delimiter variable IE: Pipe or Comma delimiter:

my $del         = '|'; # use either a '|' or ','
my $dataline  = "0|1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9";
my @data     = split(/$del/, $dataline);

This does not work, it won't split the file line with the '|' delimiter, and get no errors. But if I do this:

my $dataline  = "0|1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9";
my @data     = split(/\|/, $dataline);

Then it works prefectly, it splits the line as expected. What am I missing ??
