IIRC, Perl does not let you use a string to build a variable name like PHP does.
If you do this:
$myVar = 123;
$varName = "myVar";
print "$varName";
You get "myVar" and not "123" which seems to be what you want.
However, I think you might be able to use hashes and get what you want.
$hash{"myVar"} = "123";
$varName = "myVar";
print "$hash{$varName}";
That'll give you "123".
What exactly are you trying to accomplish?
