From: Steve V Date: 2005-04-12T03:10:21+09:00 Subject: gsub variables Are the $1, $`, $&, etc... variables within a gsub block truely global, or are they some type of special value local to the block? To be global would be fine in a single user environment, but in a multi-user web environment it seems like this could cause problems. Do I need to worry about multi-user issues with gsub? Thanks, Steve
