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
