Re: Re: Split question...

Well, here is how I'm doing it....

$search_keys = $in{keywords};
while ($search_keys) {
    ($key1,$search_keys) = split /\s/, $search_keys, 2;
    if (Check_Database($key1)) { # checks if item num
$page_content .= Get_Search_Results($key1,"item_num");
    } else {
$search_engine .= Get_Search_Results($key1,"keyword");
    }
}

That is not working though. I don't know why, I guess I'll just play with it, while taking Mad Hatters advice of /\s+/ in the split, just in case they put more spaces then 1.

Thank you for your advice.

thx,
Richard

Wouldn't it be easier to do something like `@search_keys = split /\s+/, $in{keywords}; foreach $key (@search_keys) { if (Check_Database($key)) { # checks if item num $page_content .= Get_Search_Results($key,"item_num"); } else { $search_engine .= Get_Search_Results($key,"keyword"); } }` [download]	[reply] [d/l]

@search_keys = split /\s+/, $in{keywords};
foreach $key (@search_keys) {
    if (Check_Database($key)) { # checks if item num
        $page_content .= Get_Search_Results($key,"item_num");
    } else {
        $search_engine .= Get_Search_Results($key,"keyword");
    }
