Hello all,
Howdy.
Will really appreciate help with this: I'm pulling my hair out with this
one.
I have a list of contents in the @contents array and the script finds those
headings in the html and adds anchors to them. The trouble is, the
substitution won't match when there's a question mark in the content item:
Try:
m/\Qvariable_with_meta_chars\E/
The \Q ... \E construct escapes the meta characters for you so you get a literal match. Hope that helps.
