Re^4: 3 capture multi line regex

Hi.

Your regex matched fine the first time but I need to put all occurences into an array. I can't get the array to hold anything now

push (@results, "$1::$2::$3"), $result_content =~ m/$regex/;

I tried adding /g to the end but it doesn't contain anything at all. I tried adding /g to the regex itself but it errors out.

What am I doign wrong?

your code does a very strange thing: you AT FIRST put a string "$1::$2::$3" into array and then perform search! Use a cycle :) `push (@results, "$1::$2::$3") while $result_content =~ /$regex/g;` [download] or a cleaner but IMO more ugly code: `while ($result_content =~ /$regex/g) { push (@results, "$1::$2::$3"); }` [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]

I was told recently that doing a while on the var with the HTML code can create endless loops and it's a bad thing though.	[reply]
