Re: Problem with split using a | seperator

[ikegami]

split's argument is a regexp pattern. "|" is special in regexp patterns.

split(/\|/, $record );

Wouldn't hurt to use Text::CSV_XS...

Thanks;

It's good to know that the split argument is a regex pattern. I changed it and it works great.

There's also quotemeta, as in: split quotemeta '|', $record;
