Hi Monks,
I am eternally humbled by how little I know of perl and regular expressions.
How can I match variable length data between /FIRST/ .. /LAST/ (without including FIRST and LAST. Also what is the difference between ".." and "..."?
I'm trying to do this:
if( @test = ($_ =~ /\d+\s/i ... /\sseconds/i) )
print "Test Data: @test\n";
__Input__
192.168.1.1 seconds
192.168.1.1 links.html links, index.html index 10 seconds
192.168.1.1 article1.html art1, article2.html art2, adpage 200 second
+s
But my output is only:
__DESIRED_OUTPUT__
Test Data: index.html index 5
Test Data: links.html links, index.html index 10
Test Data: article1.html art1, article2.html art2, adpage 200
__REAL_OUTPUT___
Test Data: 0
Test Data: 0
Test Data: 0

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
