[PHP] Little perl help?

2009-09-09 Thread Skip Evans

Hey all,

I know this is a PHP list, but I could use a bit of Perl help, 
a language which just does not fit in my C/C++/Java/PHP 
trained brain.


A directory is created with the following:

mkdir($img_dir,$CHMOD_ON_FOLDER_CREATE);

I need to replace spaces with the underscore character so the 
directory name contains no spaces, so I tried preceding it with


$img_dir =~ s/ /_/g;

Which did nothing.

Can someone help here?

Much thanks,
Skip

My Bad. It looks like I had some code in the wrong place. Will 
try again.

Skip,

That *should* work.  The below works on my Linux box.

$img_dir=This is an dir name with spaces;
$img_dir =~ s/ /_/g;
printf(%s\n,$img_dir);
mkdir($img_dir,$CHMOD_ON_FOLDER_CREATE);

Is there something else you're not posting, or maybe I'm not understanding?

Always glad to help a fellow cheesehead.
