Hi All,

I need to print some string into the file.
the string is like this : "<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>"

i have written code like this :
print MYFILE "<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>\n" where MYFILE is a file
handler.

if i run this code , it is giving so many syntax errors.
any advice please

You can't have unescaped quotes in a quoted string. Try this:

print MYFILE "<?xml version=3D\"1.0\" encoding=3D\"UTF-8\"?>\n";

or this:

print MYFILE '<?xml version=3D"1.0" encoding=3D"UTF-8"?>' . "\n";

Use a backslash to escape the internal double quotes:

print MYFILE "<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?>\n";
