in reply to Dividing HTML up into chunks

Note: untested code, written as I post.
open FH, "$file"; { local $/; $text = <FH>; } for($text =~ /<A NAME="([^"]+)">(.*?)(?!<A NAME=")/) { #file name is $1 #text is $2 }
Note, I saved time and used .*?. See death to dot star for why not to do that. Also, look at unrolling the loop. I leave that as an exercise to you, because I can't just hand you everything now can I : )
