in reply to Search for Second Occurence of Substing and get containing text

For your code

if(Dumper($page) =~ /===Comments===(.*?)=Microarray Data=/s) { $lit_comments = $1; }

Search the match one time only

You want to do the stuff's repeated. You will use the while loop and use the 'g' (global modifier) in your code.

while(Dumper($page) =~ /===Comments===(.*?)=Microarray Data=/gs) { $lit_comments = $1; }

Otherwise. Try this

Dumper($page) =~ s/===Comments===(.*?)=Microarray Data=/&my_process($& +)/ges; sub my_process { my ($content)=@_; ## Do You stuff's Here return $content; }
