Thanks a lot to everyone. I've already seen perlmonks as a friendly place but am really more then pleasantly surprised with so fast answers and warm welcome. Except Perl and a little bash scripting I wasn't in programming, only a long ago I've learned some Fortran but forgot a lot. So it was a prety strange for me to see that starting with Perl is not so difficult for a beginner as some people write on the web, but of course, I also see how Perl is complex and powerful. Anyway, I became addicted to do something in Perl everyday...

I will remember terms and other suggestion, in any case will try to combine the first and last block as you suggested.

I understand that nobody can help more seriously if there is not more of the code, but for the beginning, the most important for me was whether it is ok or not.

The code I've sent is simplified because I wanted to concentrate just on one question. It is a part of the script of around 160 lines, that converts a html page from Serbian Latin to Cyrillic alphabet. That script works well, gives desired result (only for simple html pages). The task of these if blocs in foreach loop is to divide html code from the page content that will be converted. I know about Parser module and already installed and tried some simple examples but didn't know how it can help me in this case, so went back to my first solution.

But, similar to my question in this node, although it gives good result, I would like to hear comments on that converter code, even if it is maybe ridiculous solution. I wonder what will be the most appropriate way for that - to start new node or in this one. The whole code could be probably be too much, so I could explain my approach only by words, or give some details of the code. I don't know anyone with whom I could talk about perl, so today is a big change for me.
