Re: reading from a textfile

Use the range operators. This will get you started:

open(FILE, "<myfile.txt");

while(<FILE>) {
   if(/Testnok/ .. /\>/) {
       print "$_";
   }
}
close(FILE);

hope this helps,

The code I offered works with the text snippet you supplied. Therefore, you either have a mistake in your code or the text file you are working with is formatted differently. Please show us what you are doing, (give us the code), and a larger sample of the text file myfile.txt (all of it if possible) and we will be able to better help you. davidj	[reply]
