in reply to regex help please!

I'd guess what you are really looking for is something like:

<td ..."tenpixblack">text to get</td>

so a regex like /<td\b.*?"tenpixblack">(.*?)<\/td>/g (giving the captured text in $1) is likely what you want. However if you are really banging on HTML then you should use HTML::TreeBuilder or HTML::Parser.


Perl is Huffman encoded by design.
