I used like this, `#!/usr/bin/perl $var='<date>'; $newvar=$var; $sec = substr($newvar,0,1); $sec = '</'; print $sec,"\n"; print "Old value is $var and new value is $sec";` [download] It doesnot print like this Old value is <date> and new value is </date>	[reply] [d/l]

Your last assignment to `$sec` is `</`. Why would you expect it to contain `</date>`?	[reply] [d/l] [select]
