Hi all,
I know this sounds a stupid question but I am not able to get a technical answer for this.

Suppose I wish to split a list of strings, eg. 
www,google,yahoo,345
www,google,yahoo,75323

[download]
such that i wish to have the split output of each row as 
$var1=www,google,yahoo
$var2=345
and so on...

[download]
A simple split will split the string as 
$str="www,google,yahoo,345";
my ($var1,$var2)=split(/,/,$str);

Output:
$var1=www
$var2=google

[download]
So if I wish to get the desired output I need to split at the last comma(,). How can I do it? Pleas help....
