And right there you showed why regexes are not good for parsing HTML (and XML). That problem is non-trival and therefore we have modules that take care of the messy parsing that is necessary to get the information you want. See my other email for the names of some modules that you might find handy. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://learn.perl.org/
