Like I've said in previous posts there's lots of good regex info if you search around Perl Monks try Perlmonks Tutorial: Regular Expressions Tutorial, the Basics (for BEGINNERS) It helps if you try to code something up yourself then post. I've found learning by doing is the best way to get familiar with REGEX.I have also found http://www.regular-expressions.info/quickstart.html very helpful working with regex's. Lots of good examples.I found tools like http://www.txt2re.com/ or Eclipses regex tool to be helpful in debugging my regex commands.Good Luck.

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).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
