Learning regular expression construction is not an easy thing beyond the basic stuff. A tool I use to help me interactively develop and test complex regex strings is the Rx toolkit in Active State's Komodo development environment (Komodo handles Perl, Python, PHP, Java and a few other languages). You can try it free and a personal license is pretty cheap. http://www.activestate.com/ I don't work for them, I just love the software because it has made my script programming a lot easier.
