Add string after another string with special characters
Hello everyone,
I'm writing a script to add a string to an XML file, right after a specified string that only occurs once in the file. For testing purposes I created a file 'testfile' that looks like this:
And this is the script as far as I've managed:
In this case, what I want it to to is to find '4' (will be a string in an XML file later) and to insert the value of $XMLSTRING on the line underneath. This all works fine when $XMLSTRING has a value without any strange characters, but in this case I get an error:
In case the formatting mangles this, the syntax error points to the first ':' in the inserted string.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
