deleting unwanted characters from string
It may be a line feed ( ). If you want to get
rid of everything but numbers and chars, try
this:<br><br>$line =~ s/[^a-z0-9]//ig;<br><br>If you want to add in
other chars, just put them inside of the brackets (make
sure to escape special chars such as `$`).<br><br>This
stuff is pretty straight forward, just read the
perlrequick POD (available on any decent Perl site or with
your Perl distribution).

Is there a way to just check for the content to make sure everything is chars
and numbers?
