Hello all
i have this peace of code
open(RULES,'rules.txt') or die $!;
my @rules = <RULES>;
close RULES or die $!;

foreach my $rule(@rules) {
if ($request =~ m/$rule/i) {
open(ERROR,"error.html");
my @error=<ERROR>;
close(ERROR);
foreach $line(@error){
print C $line;
}

it match a text from a file or 'rules' written by regular expressions with a request
but the problem that it's matching only the first line
i mean my rules file content
\.txt
that will match any .txt extension but when i add nother line
like
\.txt
\.php
it matchs only .txt
please i really need help

You need to remove the trailing newline in $rule before using it to test $request. Usually this is done with "chomp $rule;"

Add some basic print statements so you can see EXACTLY what is in $request and EXACTLY what is in $rule, probably then you will see why it's not matching.
