Hello,
I am currently working on a search-eingine for .txt files I am searching for $word in each .txt file. Now of course the ability to search for 2 words in the document, must become possible. Does any of you have an idea how to compare two hashes for the same entries ? I will show you : # ------------------------ find(\&files, $directory); # --- sub files { my $file = $File::Find::name || shift; next if($file =~ "ref.txt"); if ( $file =~ /\.txt$/ ) { open (FILE, $file); while (<FILE>) { $_ = lc ; if(m/$word/) { $results{$file}= $_; } } # End while } } # end sub files In here I will just have to build in a second : if(m/$second/) { $other{$file}= $_; } After this I change the lines to become html-minded the way I want it. I can of course do the same for %other and push it into @insecond. sub subst { for (sort keys %results) { s!/[^/]*\z!!; my $link = '/' . (split (/\//, $_, 4))[-1]; ($href = $_) =~ s(^.*/) (); push @in, "<tr><td>$href   </td><td>  <a href=${index}?load=y?dir=$_?href=$href>$link</a>  </td></tr>"; } } # End sub subst Make @in and @insecond uniq : sub uniq { my %saw; @out = grep(!$saw{$_}++, @in); } # End sub uniq And then of course print it : print "$_" foreach @out; But how do I print only those entries that excist both in @out and @outsecond ?? So in short : I want to match 2 words within .txt documents, if the document contains BOTH words I'dd like to print it. Your help is much apreciated !!
