I have a text string, with some HTML code, that I truncate (using substr).
In some instances, I truncate off some HTML close tags.

In the case of anchor tags, I do this (please tell me if there is a more
elegant ay to do this!):

if ($text =~ /\<a href/ && $text !~ /\<\/a\>/) {$text .= '</a>';}

But I realized that this doesn't work if there is more than one link, like
so:

Here is <a href="#">some text</a> that got <a href="#">truncated

Any suggestions?
