Try using the /e modifier. What it does is make the second half of the regex executed as code. In your case you'd want something like this:
$str = "(<ref links=\" cit314-1 cit314-2 cit314-3 cit314-4 cit314-5\"/
+>)";
if( $str =~ s/<ref links="(.*?)"(.*?)\/>/
"<ref links=\"$1\"$2>" . getString($1) . "<\/ref>"/e ){
print "Match was found." . "\n";
}
print $str . "\n";
sub getString($s){
my $s = shift;
...more processing of $s...
return $s;
}
Your $str changed from your previous posts, so I changed it back to the way it was in the other posts. Notice how I quoted the tags and concatenated them with the return value from the subroutine. I also did some extra formatting. Hope this helps. elusion : http://matt.diephouse.com
