This is the right place to get help, but to get good help you have to do a little work first.

For a start you could provide a little sample of the data that you need to parse like this (note the use of <code> tags, see Writeup Formatting Tips): 

__DATA__
Warning: a warning message
Exception: an exception message

Message: a message

Then to really get us excited about helping provide a sample of code that you have written and tell us where you are having trouble.

Note that it is generally a bad idea to include email addresses in nodes as they can easily be picked up by spammers and other such low life. Most monks wouldn't email you an answer anyway because the next person to have a similar problem won't get the benefit of the question you asked.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post, it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":


  • Posts are HTML formatted. Put <p> </p> tags around your paragraphs. Put <code> </code> tags around your code and data!
  • Titles consisting of a single word are discouraged, and in most cases are disallowed outright.
  • Read Where should I post X? if you're not absolutely sure you're posting in the right place.
  • Please read these before you post! —
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags:
    a, abbr, b, big, blockquote, br, caption, center, col, colgroup, dd, del, details, div, dl, dt, em, font, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, hr, i, ins, li, ol, p, pre, readmore, small, span, spoiler, strike, strong, sub, summary, sup, table, tbody, td, tfoot, th, thead, tr, tt, u, ul, wbr
  • You may need to use entities for some characters, as follows. (Exception: Within code tags, you can put the characters literally.)
            For:     Use:
    & &amp;
    < &lt;
    > &gt;
    [ &#91;
    ] &#93;
