Sure it did :)

If it didn't work for you, then you need to post a small program demonstrating how it didn't work for you,

    The code seemed to work for me.

    Using pm_txt.txt for input for pm_regex.pl pm_txt.txt

    1.hello> 2.<hello 3.hello <hello>

    pm_regex.pl

    use strict; use warnings; my $filename = shift or die "Usage $0 FILENAME\n"; open my $fh, '<', $filename or die "Could not open '$filename'\n"; while (my $line = <$fh>) { chomp $line; if ($line =~ /^\d+\..*?(hello).*$/) { print "In $line $1 matches\n"; } else { print "$line doesn't match\n"; } }

    Running perl pm_regex.pl pm_text.txt produced the output:

    In 1.hello> hello matches

    In 2.<hello hello matches

    In 3.hello hello matches

    <hello> doesn't match

      Please go to http://regexpal.com/ In java script, I need only a regex that I can use as a condition in my software.

        So you're looking for a javascript regex?
