in reply to search and replace with a temp file at a certain substr position

It sounds like you may have some other issues, but one thing you should definitely be aware of is that s/// does not return the modified string! So instead of 
    print NEW s/$ns/"blah"/;

[download]
you should do 
    s/$ns/"blah"/;
    print NEW $_;
