Hi,

I've tried to fiure this out on my own but hit a road block. I'm reading in
an external file, then doind a search and replace. I am also using the
following to break lines at 256 characters

use Text::Wrap qw(wrap $columns $huge);
$columns = 256;
$huge = "die";


Problem I'm having is if there is a tag like below

<test attr1="var" attr2="var" attr3="var" attr4="var" attr5="var"
attr6="var" attr7="var">

It may get broken like so:

<test attr1="var" attr2="var" attr3="var"
attr4="var" attr5="var" attr6="var" attr7="var">

I don't want this to happen. How can I avoid this? The program breaks lines
at 256 characters. If its in the middle of a tag I want it to break before
or after and NOT in between. How do I do this?



Code below:

#!/usr/local/bin/perl

require 5.000;
use Env;
use Cwd;
use File::Basename;
use Text::Wrap qw(wrap $columns $huge);

$columns = 256;
$huge = "die";

my $infile = $ARGV[0];
open(FILEREAD, "$infile.txt");
 open(FILEWRITE, "> $infile.temp");
   $i=1;
  while (<FILEREAD>)
  {
   chomp $_;
   $_ =~ s/<p>/\n<p>/ig;
   print FILEWRITE wrap("", "", $_), "\n";
   $i++;
  }
 close FILEWRITE;
close FILEREAD;
