Re: url get with string

If $name is just a simple string like you showed, with no special characters, then huck has given you the answer in regards to interpolation in '$name' vs. "$name".

However, if you've got any special characters in that string, they need to be escaped properly. Here's one way with URI:

use URI;
my $name = 'xyz&foo=bar';
my $uri = URI->new('https://www.google.com/');
$uri->query_form(
    name => $name,
    foo  => 'quz',
);
print "$uri\n";

__END__

https://www.google.com/?name=xyz%26foo%3Dbar&foo=quz

non of idea has worked I demonstrated that my suggestion does work, so perhaps you could demonstrate with code how it doesn't do what you want? How do I post a question effectively?	[reply]

here is a working code, anyone can try `my $req = HTTP::Request->new(GET => 'https://www.google.com/finance/co +nverter?a=3&from=USD&to=EUR'); $req->content_type('application/json'); my $re = $ua->request($req); $re->content =~ m\|<span class=bld>(.+?)</span>\|i and $span = $1; $ct = substr($1, 0, -6); print $ct; prints 2.77 according to the currency usd to euro` [download] but when you try to put amount from string $m = "3"; `https://www.google.com/finance/converter?a=$m&from=USD&to=EUR` [download] doesn;t work correctly	[reply] [d/l] [select]
