I would first strip out everything from the start to <BODY>, then everything from </BODY> to the end... $test2convert =~ s/^.*\<BODY\>// ; $test2convert =~ s/\<\/BODY\>.*$// ; Remove any existing newlines... $test2convert =~ s/\n// ; Are you sure that the paragraph tags are always paired up? If so, you could always strip out the <p>s and substitute the </p> with \n . If you don't have control over the input, then this would be a big assumption to make. But it might give you ideas to start with based on how complex the data is...
