Re: meta parsing problems

this isnt fool proof, but it'll probably do what you want...

foreach( $content =~ m#<meta (.*?)>#sgoi )
{
  my $name = $1 if( $_ =~ m#name\s*?=\s*?["'](.*?)["']#sgoi);
  my $cont = $1   if( $_ =~ m#content\s*?=\s*?["'](.*?)["']#sgoi);
}

Eventhough the thread's a bit old... There are problems with this approach. You should rellay consider using HTML::TreeBuilder, it's as easy as `use HTML::TreeBuilder; my $tree = HTML::TreeBuilder->new()->parse($data); for my $tag ($tree->look_down( _tag => "meta")) { $kWords{$tag->attr("name")} = $tag->attr("content"); }` [download] The above code takes care of spaces/linebreaks &s.o. And its fast and widely used. Just my 5cents. FJ	[reply] [d/l]

  use HTML::TreeBuilder;
  my $tree = HTML::TreeBuilder->new()->parse($data);

  for my $tag ($tree->look_down( _tag => "meta")) {
    $kWords{$tag->attr("name")} = $tag->attr("content");
  }
