Welcome to the Monastery. In the future, please wrap input in <code> tags so it doesn't get mangled. Note how chunks of your post got linkified.

The basics of your question are documented in Extracting matches in perlretut. The only trick, assuming you mean to be using [ and ] as delimiters, is that these characters have special meaning in regular expressions, and thus must be escaped. Your regular expression might look something like /\[(.*?)\]/.


#11929 First ask yourself `How would I do this without a computer?' Then have the computer do it the same way.

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.
