I am a total newbie in perl

I have a html file with some junk after </html?

So I am trying to clean it.

This is how I started out. Its inside a unix shell script so I must
test on a command line like this:

% cat file.html | perl -ne '{$/="</HTML>" ; if ($_ =~ m#</html>#i)
{ print $_ } }'


OK I wrote it by imitating other examples.

I dont know why I use switch -n . These are not described in man perl.
It only lists all switches in syntax line.

It always miss the top line.


I am sure you have many variants of this to teach this dumb newbie.
