Re: Split Not Working Correctly?

Tip #2 from the Basic debugging checklist: print

      print "$call_subs{$call}\n";
      @subjects = split(/, /, $call_subs{$call});
      use Data::Dumper;
      print Dumper(\@subjects);

Thanks, toolic. I did use print to see what was coming out (though not with the syntax you used here, which didn't work for me). @subjects contains everything it should--all the subject headings. It's just that some of the subject headings are not getting assigned the class. I am reading the documentation you have linked here. Thanks.	[reply]

@subjects contains everything it should ... It's just that some of the subject headings are not getting assigned the class. The strings in the `@subjects` array are correct; OK so far. But I don't understand (and others apparently share my confusion) how a string can be "assigned a class".	[reply] [d/l]
