in reply to Escaping MySQL password

I think you'll find that if you develop scripts with -w and use strict then perl will do its best to tell you what you're doing wrong.

In this case, I'm guessing that it'll complain about an unescaped '@' in a double-quoted string.

    I am using strict and -w, I alway do. Perl doesn't complain because it's just reading what it found in the file. This isn't the exact code, but just a brief pseudo-code to illustrate the problem. $_ is actually a line as within a while loop from a file read. I haven't tried some of the suggestions above, but I will give it a go and see what happens.

    Thanks - THRAK
