Re^2: Regarding Regular Expressions

Solutions involving substitution are not what the OP wants. How about this:

  my @results = $mystr =~ /(efg)/g;

Taken literally, "e followed by fg" is efg. If other characters may come between, try:

  my @results = $mystr =~ /(e.*?fg)/g;

Thats wrong, since the example has more 'fg' as 'e' so every hit starts at the first e and ends at x's 'fg'. `$input = 'xxxxefghijklfghijklabcdefg'; __OUTPUT__ efg efghijklfg efghijklfghijklabcdefg` [download] Boris	[reply] [d/l]
