Well why didn't you say that in the first place! Use HTML::Parser or HTML::TreeBuilder to pull appart stuff like that! Parsing HTML using regexen is a bad, bad, bad idea and you will have an unhappy life.

    lol ya but this is why i love perl... there are a million ways to kill a cat and a million more ways to skin it...
    i think ive just about got it. ill fill you all in with my stupidity when im done

      Hey, what's all this about murder and mutilation? No one eats cats nor wears cat fur (except for the cat) - so leave the poor thing alone. Schroedinger's caused enough trouble with this ;-).

        Nobody eats mosquito or wears mosquito fur either, but we still swat 'em ;-)
