Regex Multi line match

[William Melanson]

Greetings,

This is the multi line pattern in which I wish to match:

<tr>
<td><b> String 1.2.3.4.5.6 </b></td>
<td><img src="pics/green.gif" alt="OK"></td>
<tr>

This is what I have:

==========================================================
#!/usr/bin/perl -w

my $file='./index.html';

open INFILE, $file or die "Can't open $file: $!";
while (<INFILE>)
{
    if (/^<tr>\n
         ^<td><b> String 1\.2\.3\.4\.5\.6 </b></td>\n
         ^<td><img src\=\"pics/green\.gif\" alt\=\"OK\"></td>\n
         ^<tr>\n/smx) {

         print("$_");
    }
}
close INFILE;

==========================================================

What have I been overlooking?

Thanks much
