Hi all,
I've got a variable containing the last line of a UK postal address which may
or may not contain a postcode. I need to remove the postcode and place it
somewhere else and therefore think a regex of the form:
if ($lastline=~/myregex/) {
$lastline=$1;
$postcode=$2;
}
However I'm having problems with the regex. The criteria is:
The postcode may or may not have anything before it (the $1 bit)
The postcode may only have whitespace, '.' or ',' after it (which does not
want to be kept)
The postcode is of the format
1 or 2 letters
1 or 2 numbers,
optional space
1 number
2 letters
If it is only a partial postcode it will have only up to the optional space.
However, if this cannot be catered for, it's not the end of the world.
