Slime Lunatic (VI) Mad Scientist From: Massachusetts, USA Insane since: Mar 2000	posted 07-20-2001 01:33 OK, I want to interpolate a variable in a quote, and then have something in squiggly brackets right after it, like: "$myvar{ladeda}" Obviously, it thinks I'm trying to interpolate a hash element, and gives me an error. Is there a good way around this without string concatenation?
