Thanks FunkyMonk, I added more examples. Also I am just trying to pick up the Title description, not the GRP-134 -
Thanks

    OK, with more data it looks like you want to capture everything after " - " up to "</title>". So...
    while (<DATA>) { print "/", m{ - (.*?)\s*</title>}, "/\n"; } __DATA__ <title>GRP -134 - Grinding And Cutting Solution (ACME PR50 - Water Typ +e) </title> <title> GRP-123-1 - Grinding And Cutting Solution (Quakeroat 2780 UTC +- Synthetic Type)</title> <title> GRP-124 - Alkaline Rust Remover Solution</title> <title> GRP-124-1 - Alkaline Rust Remover Solution (Ardvark 185 - Rust + Remover)</title> <title> GRP-124-2 - Alkaline Rust Remover Solution (Ardvark 185L - Rus +t Remover)</title> <title> GRP-124-3 - Alkaline Rust Remover Solution (Bee-Dee J84AL - Ru +st Remover)</title> <title> GRP-124-4 - Alkaline Rust Remover Solution (Mag HD2-202 - Rust + Remover)</title> <title> GRP-124-5 - Alkaline Rust Remover Solution (Turk 4181L - Rust +Remover)</title> <title> GRP-124-6 - Alkaline Rust Remover Solution (Turk 4181 - Rust R +emover)</title> <title> GRP-124-7 - Alkaline Rust Remover Solution (Bee-Dee J84A - Rus +t Remover)</title> <title> GRP-124-8 - Alkaline Rust Remover Solution (Cadilac HTP-1150 - + Rust Remover)</title> <title> GRP-124-9 - Alkaline Rust Remover Solution (Cadilac HTP-1150L +- Rust Remover)</title> <title> GRP-124-10 - Alkaline Rust Remover (Titanium Long Soak)";

    Output:

    /usr/bin/perl -w /home/bri/git/cvsid/pm /Grinding And Cutting Solution (ACME PR50 - Water Type)/ /Grinding And Cutting Solution (Quakeroat 2780 UTC - Synthetic Type)/ /Alkaline Rust Remover Solution/ /Alkaline Rust Remover Solution (Ardvark 185 - Rust Remover)/ /Alkaline Rust Remover Solution (Ardvark 185L - Rust Remover)/ /Alkaline Rust Remover Solution (Bee-Dee J84AL - Rust Remover)/ /Alkaline Rust Remover Solution (Mag HD2-202 - Rust Remover)/ /Alkaline Rust Remover Solution (Turk 4181L - Rust Remover)/ /Alkaline Rust Remover Solution (Turk 4181 - Rust Remover)/ /Alkaline Rust Remover Solution (Bee-Dee J84A - Rust Remover)/ /Alkaline Rust Remover Solution (Cadilac HTP-1150 - Rust Remover)/ /Alkaline Rust Remover Solution (Cadilac HTP-1150L - Rust Remover)/ //

    The empty last match is due yo what I hope is copy-paste error in the data you posted


    Unless I state otherwise, all my code runs with strict and warnings
