Hi all, Haven't used perl in a while and now I've got some regex stuff to do and need a couple pointers. I'm stripping address data into BS7666 (GIS format) format and an example of the data is:
rushey way, lower earley waterloo rd, unit 4 34a essex road, wokingham I need to break the data into: HouseNumber RoadNumber RoadName Parish How do I seperate regex code to look for a housenumber, then text before and after a ","? I was thinking (eg): my ($a, $b) = /[0-9]+/ for the numbers, but how do I then get the regex to match a number, THEN look for the next regex? Is there a regex break that specifies the match to each seperate regex? Regards Ben __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
