perlquestion ghenry <p>Dear all,</p> <p>I have the following in CSV:</p> <code> "My Company","Gavin","Henry ","ghenry@ghenry.co.uk"," 1.00"</code> <p>I have:</p> <code> my $csv = Text::CSV_XS->new( { binary => 1, eol => $/ } ); open my $io, '<', $file or die "$file: $!"; while ( my $row = $csv->getline($io) ) { my @fields = @$row; next unless $fields[4]; $fields[4] =~ s/\s+//g; print $fields[4], "\n"; } </code> <p>This looks like whitespace but is never removed. What am I missing? This is soo basic it's driving me mental!</p> <p>Thanks.</p> <div class="pmsig"><div class="pmsig-386673"> <small>Walking the road to enlightenment...
