Re: finding data in a string

what if its like this

$string = "stuff, Hello the name of this site is perlmonks.org, goodby
+e./n
stuff Hello my name is bob, goodbye."
[download]

how could i make it so that it gets both strings between Hello and goodbye

 
@newarray = (" the name of this site is perlmonks.org, ", " my name is
+ bob, ")
[download]

does the /n return make a difference

I think I can tame this one... use the split function: my @newarray = split (/Hello/$string); (man I hope that syntax is right... looked it up though, so it should be fine.) _________________________________________ E-Bitch Tempora Mutantur Nos et Mutamur in Illis "The Times are Changed Even as We are Changed in Them"	[reply]
