RE: A Search And Replace Questionby FouRPlaY (Monk) |

There's a reason such a simple question like this got posted. The question boils it down really well. And it got answer easily. My problem answer myself was that I let it get to confusing. The problem as I saw it was this:
"Given an input unix text file that has been broken into an array by lines, had any unnessacry characters replaced with ! and split based on those !; find a keyword followed by data of unknow size that can be changed at any time and add </table><br><br><table border> to the end of it." Which is a much harder to answer question then "If I'm searching for a keyword which is followed by "stuff", how can I add some text after the "stuff"?" Well, that's what was going through my head. I broke the problem down to post it here, but didn't for myself. BTW, I took Fastolfe's suggestion and it worked fine.
