finding first >
I want to erase some php code between a <? and a ?> in HTML containing a keyword, the problem is it finds the last > and wipes out everything before it how do i specify for it to stop searching after the first >? Code:
perl -i -p0e 's/<\?php.*keyword.*\?>//s' there's many lines of php code in the document so what this does is erases until the last > but i dont want it to go that far thanks! |

Code:
perl -i -p0e 's/<\?php.*?keyword.*?\?>//s' It is called "non-greedy" matching. |
