Re: regular expression

[frozenwithjoy]

You almost have it right. If I change $kb_lay_img_url=$&; to $kb_lay_img_url=$1;, it works for me. (see: Special Variables)

EDIT: Here, I've made this change (and added Anon's suggestion, which makes the regex safer/better):

#!/usr/bin/env perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use feature 'say';

my $line =
"</div><div class='ClipPicture'><a href='http://www.laptop-keys.com/Ke
+yboardKeys/Cart/Acer/A_Series/A110/A8A'><img alt='Clip Style Pic' src
+='http://www.laptop-keys.com/images/KeyboardImages/A8A.png' width='65
+9' height='135'/></a></div><div class='RadioButtonContainerClipStyle'
+>";

if ($line=~ /<img .* src='([^']+)'.*\/><\/a>/) {
    print "got2\n";
    my $kb_lay_img_url = $1;
    say $kb_lay_img_url;
}

__END__
got2
