Hello I have a problem with some perl code. I know this is off-topic, but there are numerous knowledgeable people on deb-usr, so forgive me for posting this.
Now to my problem. Given the following variable, my $BEGINREGEX = "sprintf(\"^<!-- // begin of news\$no // !-->\$\")"; the following eval() call doesn't substitute $no for what it is and return the new string with the substituted $no in it: my $no = 1; my $bla = eval($BEGINREGEX); print "$bla\n"; $bla is empty for some reason. So how would I go about having $no substituted in $BEGINREGEX for whatever it happens to be set to at a particular point in the script? Cheers!
