Need Help??

in reply to regex a url

An alternative directly using a regexp is to use the URI::URL (or even just the URI) module. This module is especially handy when when dealing with and manipulating URLs.

use URI::URL;
my $url = URI::URL->new('http://www.merchandisemarket.net/shop/s_image
+s/aaa_small.gif ')
my ($filename) = ($url->path_segments)[-1];
