Have you tried using chomp to remove any trailing newlines? e.g. my $string = chomp($myinput);

    I got the solution for this problem
    I encoded the "&" on the url like "%26".
    After I coded this to do the translation
            if($name=~/(.*)&(.*?)/)
            {

             $name=~s/(.*)&(.*?)/$1%26$2/;
              print $name;

         }
         else
         {
                  print $name;
         }

    I think that problem starts even before.
    I have a link like:
    <a href=\"applic.pl?trans=edit&action=edit&name=$name>
    The value from the header isn't parsing the "&".
