Re^2: Text Parse Question with RegEx

The problem is that this data is contained on many different pages and will show up in different rows. The HTML also varies around the rows I want.

They only thing that the data has, from which I can parse by, is that 'and' is in the row and the row HTML doesn't have a <br> in it.

so the following probably is what you want: `# ... as for first sample my $tree = HTML::TreeBuilder->new; $tree->parse ($var); for ($tree->find ('tr')) { next unless $_->as_text () =~ /\band\b/; next if $_->find ('br'); print $_->as_text () . "\n"; }` [download] Prints: `19th Ave and Eighth Street S.E. Boser and Liker Trail S.E. Lambert and Jerry Drive S.E.` [download] DWIM is Perl's answer to Gödel	[reply] [d/l] [select]
