I want to provide a upper and lower case replace capability to my program. The line that does the standard regex works but I am not sure if the LC and UC calls will work. I have not been able to check this but figured I'd post in case there is a different way to tackle this.

Here is what I am doing (%input is CGI)

for ( keys %input ) { $report =~ s/$input->param('wrapper')$_$input->param('wrapper')/$i +nput->param($_)/g; $report =~ s/$input->param('wrapper')lc_$_$input->param('wrapper') +/lc $input->param($_)/g; $report =~ s/$input->param('wrapper')uc_$_$input->param('wrapper') +/uc $input->param($_)/g; }

It's lines 3 and 4 I am curious about. Will that work? From the looks of it, I would assume not (meaning it won't do what I'm thinking I want it to do).

TIA
