I agree that use of an XML parser is likely to be a better idea, but just an example of what your fellow monks were hoping for as an example of what you tried and what resulted (except this works):

>perl -wMstrict -le "my $s = qq{xxx </div>\n</body> xxx}; print qq{[[$s]]}; ;; my $tags = qr{ </div> \n </body> }xms; $s =~ s{ $tags }{gone}xms; print qq{[[$s]]}; " [[xxx </div> </body> xxx]] [[xxx gone xxx]]

Question: Are you sure it's only a single newline that's present? The presence of other whitespace characters than just a newline can confuse the issue. The following might be a better regex:
    qr{ </div> \s* </body> }xms

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
