Column manipulation

Hi,

I's like to ask for help with the following question:

this is an example file:

HTML Code:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
I need to have it re-arranged in the following manner: first 2 columns, zero, zero, last two columns, columns 3 to 8

the result should look like this:

HTML Code:
1 2 0 0 9 10 3 4 5 6 7 8
1 2 0 0 9 10 3 4 5 6 7 8
1 2 0 0 9 10 3 4 5 6 7 8
1 2 0 0 9 10 3 4 5 6 7 8
I've tried to do it with awk:

HTML Code:
awk '{print $1, $2, "0", "0", $9, $10; for(i=3;i<=8;i++) printf "%s ",$i ; print ""}' input-file > output-file
but the result looks like this:

Code:
1 2 0 0 9 10
3 4 5 6 7 8
1 2 0 0 9 10
3 4 5 6 7 8
etc.

Any help to achieve the file I need would be greatly appreciated!

Many thanks in advance!

HTML::ElementRaw(3pm)					User Contributed Perl Documentation				     HTML::ElementRaw(3pm)

NAME
HTML::ElementRaw - Perl extension for HTML::Element(3). SYNOPSIS
use HTML::ElementRaw; $er = new HTML::ElementRaw; $text = '<p>I would like this &nbsp; HTML to not be encoded</p>'; $er->push_content($text); $h = new HTML::Element 'h2'; $h->push_content($er); # Now $text will appear as you typed it, non-escaped, # embedded in the HTML produced by $h. print $h->as_HTML; DESCRIPTION
Provides a way to graft raw HTML strings into your HTML::Element(3) structures. Since they represent raw text, these can only be leaves in your HTML element tree. The only methods that are of any real use in this degenerate element are push_content() and as_HTML(). The push_content() method will simply prepend the provided text to the current content. If you happen to pass an HTML::element to push_content, the output of the as_HTML() method in that element will be prepended. REQUIRES
