Perl Gods, I need some help -- suppose I want to search a variable containing the contents of a HTML page, what would be the best way? For example, the HTML page has "NOTE: Something somethinng", but NOTE: is surrounded by a bunch of HTML gook. All I want is the stuff after "NOTE:" .. how would I do that?
<font face='Arial,Helvetica,Sans Serif' color='#000055' size='2'/><B>N
+ote:</B> </font><font face='Arial,Helvetica,Sans Serif' color=
+'#000055' size='2'/>By arrangement.</font>
And I want to extract "By arrangement." from the above .... how would I do that?
Thanks,
Helpless (and Stupid)

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.
