Hi, At first I want to thanks all monks who took care about broken Temple yesterday. We discuss about this my question in Chatterbox, but due bug in interface I wasn't able to add question to SOPW. So I am doing it now.

Question is simple. I have something like:

((AND|OR)([!=><]+)(.*))+

(I used regex just to describe how my string can look like) I fact this can be something like:

$check = "AND=>1536463OR<foobarOR=5";

I need this to parse into $1, $2, $3, $4...... so:

while ( $check =~ /^((AND|OR)([!=><]+)((?:(?!AND)(?!OR ).)*))/ ) { 
    $1...;
    $2...;
    $3...;
    ...;
    $check =~ s/$1//;
}

(this was made with help from other monks...) but unfortunately don't work well in all cases. What I need is parse string into logic operator AND or OR, =<>!(should be its combination) and last - variable. If you have any suppose how to do this, please get me know. At least syntax of the string can be changed.....

Thanks for help
