(EMACS) please help checking a bug => highlighting after __DATA_

LanX has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I'm having a strange problem when inserting HTML-code after __DATA__.

My cperl-mode is trying to highlight the data and a large amount of "malformated" trs can make the editor unresponsive.(the <tr> markup is misinterpreted)

Before filing a bug-report, could someone please check if in the following code "s","g","for" and "print" are highlighted?

#!/usr/bin/perl

__DATA__
s/huh/ttt/g
for (1..9) {  print "huhu"}
[download]

And please tell me the versions you use if you don't have this problem:

"M-x version"GNU Emacs 23.1.50.1

"C-h v cperl-version" Its value is "6.2"

Cheers Rolf

Thanks, it shows your having the same problem. (And thx, I forgot that there's an export to html ... :) I'm not sure if it's a bug or a feature, some CPAN-moduls have most of their code in the data-section. Cheers Rolf	[reply]
