Hello hoping someone could help me. I am trying to create a script which searches through all files in a directory for a string, if the string is found I want it to look through the entire file which it found the first string and look for a second string. Right now I have the code below, but it looks like when it tries to match the second string it's comparing the regex against the result/output of the first regex not against the entire file which it found the fist regex in. How can I make my script search for a string against a file if it finds the string in that file then search that entire file once again for the second string. thanks for the help. 
<code>
sub edits() {
    if ( -f and /^Khlog.08$/ ) {
        foreach ( $File::Find::name ) {
            open(LOG, "< $File::Find::name") or die "Could not open fi
+le $_: $!";
            while ( <LOG> ) {
                my $LINE = $_;
                if ( $LINE =~ m/002389983/ ) {
                    print "Looking for: 002389983\n Found it in file: 
+$LINE\n";
                    if ( $LINE =~ m/29994339499/ ) {
                        print "Looking for: 29994339499\n Found it in 
+file: $LINE\n";
                    }
                    else {
                        print "Could not find the second string: 29994
+339499\n";
                    }
                }
            } 
        }
    }
