Re: Calling a function in regex substitution

Using functions can be done in regexps, but easier in this case is

$str=~s/(iteration)(.*)/<B> /U$1/E$2 <\/B>/g;

`$str=~s/(iteration)(.)/<B> /U$1/E$2 <\/B>/g;`* It is recommendable to test your code before posting it here. Your snippet produces a syntax error, and you need to use backslashes, not forward slashes.	[reply] [d/l]
