I am just wondering if there is a known problem with split(). I have tried
to locate a bug report tracking system on-line to vrfy this before asking,
but failed to do so. Anyways the problem..

  ($website,$logdata) = split(/​:/, $newmsg, 2);

the input line is :
www.calweb.com​:207.211.93.239 - - [27/Jul/1999​:16​:41​:50 -0700] "GET / HTTP/1.0" 200 6512

$logdata is printed out to another file, but there are about 200 out of
225534 with the www.calweb.com​: still in them. Comparing the input line vs
whats in the output file, with od, and the lines are the same, so no random
chars in there screwing it up. I will put the entire code at the bottom of
this msg if it helps any more..

Thanks!!

Looks like a bug in your script. Since MAXLEN is 1024, you are
presumably reading more than one record on occasion.
