You can use the following code... $email = 'Name LastName <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>'; $email =~ /<([\w@.]+)>/; $email = $1; print $email;
As you seem relatively new to this, here is a breakdown $email = 'Name LastName <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>'; # Just define the data for this demo $email =~ /<([\w@.]+)>/; # This is a regular expression which looks for a left angle bracket < # Followed by either [] # a word character \w # or an at sign @ # or a full stop . # Look for at least one of each of these, but more if possible + # Save the stuff you find using this criteria in the special variable () # But don't look past the right angle bracket # Hopefully that makes some sense ;) $email = $1; # Now store the data that was matched and stored in the special variable $1 back into the $email var print $email; # You know this one, right ;) HTH John -----Original Message----- From: Roman Fordinal [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 05 February 2002 17:11 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: select text i need get e-mail adrees from string $email="Name LastName <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>" to $email="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" why get it???? :(((( : :. s pozdravom :..
