Thanks for all the solutions. I'm currently trying out this code. However, how do I do some exclusive regex matching that spans multiple lines in this text that is present in each of the chunks? I mean, We now have the Text, text, text right? Now, I want to find some data from it. For example, consider the following data:
1 of 10 DOCUMENTS TITLE HERE AUTHOR: __________ SUBJECT: ___________________________ ____________________________________ BODY: ______________________________ ____________________________________ ____________________________________ ____________________________________ 2 of 10 DOCUMENTS TITLE HERE AUTHOR: __________ SUBJECT: ___________________________ ____________________________________ BODY: ______________________________ ____________________________________ ____________________________________ ____________________________________ 3 of 10 DOCUMENTS TITLE HERE AUTHOR: __________ SUBJECT: ___________________________ ____________________________________ BODY: ______________________________ ____________________________________ ____________________________________ ____________________________________
What I want to do is to enclose the specific fields in a tag. For example, grab the title from the first chunk and then enclose it in <title></title> and then body (notice how it spans multiple lines. This is the problem for me now) into <body></body> and so on... Any suggestions on how to get over this one?
