Re: extract pattern from large blob of text

@- and @+ are arrays, as documented in perlvar. Maybe you wanted to actually capture things?

My approach would be to also capture the nonce value in the same regular expression match:

if( $message =~ /nonce\s+=\s+"([^"]+)"/ ){
    my $nonce= $1;
    print "Found nonce: $nonce\n";
} else {
    die "No nonce found in message:" . $message;
};

very usable example, thx Seems the formatting of $message is not correct to me, I have added how I get to the content of $message to the original post.	[reply]

If you think the formatting of `$message` is not what you want it to be, what steps have you taken to confirm this? Maybe printing `$message` might show you the content?	[reply] [d/l] [select]
