I am trying to extract a table (<table class="xxxx"><tr><td>...... until </table>) and its content from an HTML file.
With the file I have something like this <div id="product" class="product"> <table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" class="prodc" title="Product "> . . . </table> </div> There could be more that one table in the file.however I am only interested in the table within <div id="product" class="product"> </div>. /^.*<div id="product" class="product">.+?(<table border="0".+?\s+<\/table>)\s*<\/div>.*$/ims The above and various variations I tried do not much. I am able to easily match this using sed, however I need to try using perl. This sed work just fine: sed -n '/<div id="product" class="product">/,/<\/table>/p' thelo826.html |sed -n '/<table border.*/,/<\/table>/p'| sed -e 's/class=".*"//g' Thanks Mimi
