Re: to get next line of pattern matched

in reply to to get next line of pattern matched

In a much as I will not recommend using regex to parse HTML doc., however, for this you could use Look-Around Assertions like so:

use warnings;
use strict;

my $str = "<div class='PlayVideo'></div>
        A8A
        <div class='RadioButtonClipStyle'>";

if ( $str =~ m#(?<=</div>)(.+?)(?=<div.+?>)#s ) {
    print $1;  ## prints A8A
}

your solution is correct but the file i am parsing contains many div tag
can you please provide the more specific solution

Since you're having so many problems achieving this with a regex, have you considered taking the previous advice of using a HTML Parser?

[ansh batra]

ill surely consider that advice but i am about to complete something and at this point i am trying not to add any module to this if this is achivable using regular expressions
