If it's as simple as you're making it sound, the "split" function is for you.
@arrayName = split(/delimiter/, $string); So your new array is @arrayName @arrayName[0] is what's before the delimiter ... @arrayName[1] is what's after it. put your delimiting character in between the forward slashes you may need to escape it with a backslash if it's a reserved character and of course $string is the contents of the original file.

So all the html code would go into a variable and then all the text would go into a different variable. Sorry for the confusion.
