how to delete a line from the file

Hi,
I have a file which contains entries with different numbers, for example:

275|24hroff|sel,fill,dbw|
2758|24hroff|sel,fill,dbw|
2765|24hroff|sel,fill,dbw|
2920|24hroff|sel,fill,dbw|

I need to delete a line which contains certian number, for instance 275
I was trying to use 'sed' but it removes all lines containing this pattern, so line with number 275 and 2758 are removed. I need to remove the exact match only. Also, number is an argument in my script. For example, PX=275
May be somebody come across a similar problem. I am in ksh88
Thanks a lot for any help -A

NAME
Test::WWW::Selenium - Test applications using Selenium Remote Control VERSION
version 1.33 SYNOPSIS
Test::WWW::Selenium is a subclass of WWW::Selenium that provides convenient testing functions. use Test::More tests => 5; use Test::WWW::Selenium; # Parameters are passed through to WWW::Selenium my $sel = Test::WWW::Selenium->new( host => "localhost", port => 4444, browser => "*firefox", browser_url => "http://www.google.com", default_names => 1, error_callback => sub { ... }, ); # use special test wrappers around WWW::Selenium commands: $sel->open_ok("http://www.google.com", undef, "fetched G's site alright"); $sel->type_ok( "q", "hello world"); $sel->click_ok("btnG"); $sel->wait_for_page_to_load_ok(5000); $sel->title_like(qr/Google Search/); $sel->error_callback(sub {...}); DESCRIPTION
This module is a WWW::Selenium subclass providing some methods useful for writing tests. For each Selenium command (open, click, type, ...) there is a corresponding "<command>_ok" method that checks the return value (open_ok, click_ok, type_ok). For each Selenium getter (get_title, ...) there are four autogenerated methods ("<getter>_is", "<getter>_isnt", "<getter>_like", "<getter>_unlike") to check the value of the attribute. By calling the constructor with "default_names" set to a true value your tests will be given a reasonable name should you choose not to provide one of your own. The test name should always be the third argument. NAME
Test::WWW::Selenium - Test applications using Selenium Remote Control REQUIREMENTS
To use this module, you need to have already downloaded and started the Selenium Server. (The Selenium Server is a Java application.) ADDITIONAL METHODS
Test::WWW::Selenium also provides some other handy testing functions that wrap WWW::Selenium commands: get_location Returns the relative location of the current page. Works with _is, _like, ... methods. error_callback Sets the method to use when a corresponding selenium test is called and fails. For example if you call text_like(...) and it fails the sub defined in the error_callback will be called. This allows you to perform various tasks to obtain additional details that occured when obtianing the error. If this is set to undef then the callback will not be issued. AUTHORS
