> "^<a href[\"\'A-Za-z0-9_+\.+\"\']>[A-Za-z0-9+\.A-Za-z0-9+]</a>" I thought I'd try to implement this match in perl, so I cam up with this: /.*<a href=\"(.+\">.+)<\/a>/$1/ Which will match everything, but will return "> as well, which I'm not regex skilled to remove in one hit, so a simple s/\">//g would remove afterwards. -- John
