Hello BrowserUK


many thanks for the posting! That looks very very impressive: i am happy!

btw: to verify the things - see here the task in a more descriptive way: so i decide to use PERL - since it is very very powerful - i try to nail down the issues while using PERL.

See one of the example sites: http://www.kultusportal-bw.de/servlet/PB/menu/1188427/index.html?COMPLETEHREF=http://www.kultus-bw.de/did_abfrage/detail.php?id=04313488
in the grey shadowed block you see the wanted information: 17 lines that are wanted. Note - i have 5000 different HTML-files - that all are structured in the very same way!

BrowserUk - you gave very very useful hints. Thanks for all!

i am very happy to have a template that can be runned with and to be stored in the mysql database

would be great!!

regards Perl-Beginner!
