As I pointed out in Re: need help in building dynamic regular expression, wrap code in <code> tags. Read Writeup Formatting Tips and How (Not) To Ask A Question.

Update: With your legible post, I can now point out a bug. Your path contains the character sequence \d. This is a regular expression metacharacter that means "match any digit". Since you do not intend it in this capacity, you need to escape it before passing it into the regular expression engine. This is usually done with the pair \Q...\E. So your code might look like if( $line =~ /\Q$key\E\\\S+\\/){ # if this is not end node. This is discussed in Quote and Quote like Operators and in Regexp Quote Like Operators in the document perlop.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post, it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":


  • Posts are HTML formatted. Put <p> </p> tags around your paragraphs. Put <code> </code> tags around your code and data!
  • Titles consisting of a single word are discouraged, and in most cases are disallowed outright.
  • Read Where should I post X? if you're not absolutely sure you're posting in the right place.
  • Please read these before you post! —
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags:
    a, abbr, b, big, blockquote, br, caption, center, col, colgroup, dd, del, details, div, dl, dt, em, font, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, hr, i, ins, li, ol, p, pre, readmore, small, span, spoiler, strike, strong, sub, summary, sup, table, tbody, td, tfoot, th, thead, tr, tt, u, ul, wbr
  • You may need to use entities for some characters, as follows. (Exception: Within code tags, you can put the characters literally.)
            For:     Use:
    & &amp;
    < &lt;
    > &gt;
    [ &#91;
    ] &#93;
