Daniel,
Inside [ ] means "any of the following", so you don't use the | as an OR
in this situation. Take the | out and you should be fine. Here's my
example:
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
my $variable1; my @variable2; my %variable3;
$variable1=1; @variable2=(1,2,3); %variable3=(1,2,3,4);
# |SOMETEXT should NOT get matched
open INFILE, $0;
while (<INFILE>) {
while (m#([EMAIL PROTECTED])#g) {
print "$1\n";
}
}
close INFILE;
