Perl geeks,
I'd like to write a regular expression for the following purpose:
In an incoming string, there are 0-1 instances of each of #NAME, #DATE, and
#DETAIL. I'd like to replace these labels in the string with the contents
of their corresponding variable, $ename, $mdate, $edetail (which are coming
from the database)
I believe that this is possible to do in a single regular expression, but I'm
not clear on how. Currently, I'm doing 3 substitutions, along the lines of:
$eline =~ s/#NAME/$ename/g;
But that's not very sophisticated and I'd like to improve my use of regexp.
Suggestions?
