Array split function & hashes
Hi,

If this is the array that is being returned to me:
Quote:
2245685|2344|Peter|2008-08-01|email@mydomain.com\n2327375|3321|Eddie|2008-08-03|email@mydomain.com\n2351984|4123|Mike|2008-08-04|email@mydomain.com\n
How would I get the values for each of the 3 records?

This works for 1 Record:
Code:
foreach $item (@results)
{
($id, $id2, $name, $date, $email) = split(/\|/, $item, 5);
print "$name<br>";
}

What platform are you on? On Unix the newline (\n) character wouldn't show up because they are line terminators. That is because text following \n would be on a new line.

Code:
open(FH,"<filename");
while(<FH>){
	@arr=split(/\\n/,$_);
        for($i=0;$i<$#arr;$i++){
		($id, $id2, $name, $date, $email)=split(/\|/,$arr[$i]);
		printf("Name:%s,ID1:%s,ID2:%s,Email:%s\n",$name,$id,$id2,$email);
	}
}
close(FH);
