Re: search and replace is not working as expected...

Would using an actual XML::Parser translate these "garbage" characters from encoded entities into actual characters, or do you need to fix the previous program in the chain so it produces real XML? (Related link: XML::Simple)

Thanks everyone for the quick replies. I basically just ended up doing: `$ARRGH =~ s/<doct>Customer trans\.(.*?)<\/doct>/<doct>Customer trans\. +<\/doct>/g;` [download] as per the first suggestion and that one worked great. Thanks a lot!	[reply] [d/l]
