Hello!

I want to extract email addresses from fetched webpages. Pages are in php. I wrote the below script, the problem is that it returns not ALL addresses (exactly 16, though there are more than one hundred on the page). Thank you in advance for your help and... Merry Xmas for those concerned :)


#!/usr/bin/perl

my $email_count;
my $readfile="path/hasbeenfetched.php";

open (READFILE, "<$readfile"); @all=<READFILE>; close (READFILE);
foreach my $line(@all) {
foreach my $email (split /\s+/, $line) {
if ( $email =~ /^-\w.+@(a-z0-9a-z-0-9+\.)+a-z{2,4}$/i ) {
print $email . "\n";
$email_count++;
}
}
}

print "Emails Extracted: $email_count\n";

1;
