Re: Array Question

[sacked]

perldoc -f push will show the documentation for the push function.

Here is an example of how you could save your "matching options" in an array for use in other parts of your program:

my @opts;

if ($imgline =~ /\Q$search\E/i) {
  my ($img_name,$img_desc) = split /\|/, $imgline;
                                                                      
+          
  push @opts => qq{<option value="$img_name">$img_desc</option>};
}
                                                                      
+          
# ... later, print out HTML select list

print "<select name=foo>\n", join( "\n" => @opts ), "\n</select>";
