Sorry for the n00b cgi question. I have a hash, with key bodybgcolor pointing to string like "#FF9966". I need to be able to remove the number sign and turn it to "FF9966". Can someone show me how to do that?

Sorry!!

EDIT: I meant I have something like "#FF9966", and I need to print "FF9966" without the number sign. I have tried and tried, and just can't find a command that will delete the first character of a string.

got the answer. $str =~ s/\#//g;
