Your post seems so very specific that if I was cynical I would suspect this was some sort of assignment rather than a problem you were trying to overcome yourself.

If you post up what you've got so far, what you think it should do, and what it actually does do, then people would gladly point out helpful corrections to your code. If you really are very new to Perl, you need to look at "regular expressions". If you don't have a perl book or perl installation with manpages, google search "perl regular expressions".

If you're not sure how to tackle this, someone providing you a throwaway solution without you learning anything does you no favours in the long run. Better to learn up on the general principles, have a stab at it, and then get help if your effort doesn't quite work

Have a stab at it, and post up with your results :-)

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:
