`$above_post =~ s/\[1\]/\\[1\\]/;` [download] In other words, you forgot to escape the brackets, thus creating a character class. Of course, since the right side isn't a regex, it almost looks like we're substituting something back to itself. Weird. Sorry. Just couldn't resist :) Cheers, Ovid Join the Perlmonks Setiathome Group or just go the the link and check out our stats.	[reply] [d/l]
