Another Perl Question

    Sorry to post another one here so soon...

    I have an array

    array[0] = DMA_ACCEPT
    array[1] = U1_ENCODER/u0_lcd/reg[0]

    and I have a scalar

    $scalar = U1_ENCODER/u0_lcd/reg[0]

    I wanna search my array for my scalar..
    Why doens't this produce a hit ?
    grep{/$scalar/}(@array)

    (It works when $scalar = DMA_ACCEPT)

    Any ideas ?

    TIA,
    Ray.

    Panic over.. problem solved.. :D

    Perl didn't like the / in the scalar
    I had to get rid of em and it worked !

    R
