Subject: RE: substitution

Is it possible to do this

No, at least not the way you are doing it.


Something like this will work (untested)

my %replacements = (ARE => 756, TYP => 978, SPE => 840);
$marque =~ s/(ARE|TYR|SPE)/$replacements{$1}/;

Close, you need the /e option to enable evaluation of the replacement string, and /g for good measure.

my %replacements = (ARE => 756, TYP => 978, SPE => 840);
$marque =~ s/(ARE|TYR|SPE)/$replacements{$1}/eg;

Huh? The replacement string will interpolate variables without an /e modifier just fine, I promise. Try it. ;)
