Split on a "?" character

[TheObserver]

Hello. I've run into a small issue. I need to split a string with a "?" in it. However, I can't get the split to work - either it throws an error or it doesn't produce the proper result.

I've tried
split("?", $mystr)
split("\?", $mystr)
split('?', $mystr)
split('\?', $mystr)
split(/\?/, $mystr)

and nothing has worked thusfar. Does anybody have any tips or a solution?

Thanks for your time.

I don't know what to tell you, this worked for me:

my $test = "first?second";
my @foo = split(/\?/, $test);
print $foo[0] . "---" . $foo[1];

my $str = 'zero?one?two?three';

my @arr = split /\?/, $str;

print "$_\n" for @arr;
