All that's needed to fix it is to add the caveat that is

there. :-)
A word boundary (C<\b>) is a spot between two characters
that has a C<\w> on one side of it and a C<\W> on the other side
of it (in either order), counting the imaginary characters off the
beginning and end of the string as matching a C<\W>.

By using the print() statement to make the correct output.
_What_ the correct output should be is not a Perl issue, so
this is not the place to ask about that part, ask in a
newsgroup that is somehow connected to web stuff.

No that is not possible, because "Perl documents" (I guess you mean Perl
scripts?) don't have "frames".
If you are talking about HTML you may want to ask in a NG that actually
deals with HTML.

If by "words," you mean strings of non-whitespace characters, you
can try this simple program:
perl -ne "print unless split > 2" file.txt
(where file.txt is your text file that you want to pull lines from).
Hope this helps,

print if (/^\W*\w+\W+\w+\W*$/);
Did I get that right? I'm not an expert.
Or you could write something just as short in awk, and
use 'a2p' to convert it into a page of unreadable perl.
Come to think of it, do you have to use perl?
perl is great, but it's not all there is to life.
Even egrep can do what you asked.

Message-Id: <1106709618.526830.152980@c13g2000cwb.googlegroups.com>
Good News!
Do you know how simple it is to go to Heaven after this life has ended?
Some people believe that belonging to a local church, temple, mosque or
synagogue will get them to Heaven.
Others believe that water baptism, obeying the ten commandments or just
being a good person will get them to Heaven.
There are many other beliefs as well, but the good news about God's way
to Heaven is found in the Holy Bible.
The good news is that God came from Heaven to earth in the person of
Jesus Christ over 2000 years ago and died for our sins(misdeeds). He
was born in the land of Israel supernaturally to a virgin Jewish woman
named Mary. He lived a sinless life for thirty-three years and then
sacrificed His sinless blood and died on a cross to pay the death
penalty for our sins. After Jesus was placed in a tomb He rose from the
dead three days later as He said He would. The Holy Bible also tells us
that Jesus Christ ascended into Heaven and that all who accept Him as
their Lord and Saviour will live forever with Him in Heaven where there
is no more death, sorrow, sickness and pain.
The Bible says, "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is
eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord." (Romans 6:23)
This verse in the Bible says, "For ALL HAVE SINNED, and come short of
the glory of God." (Romans 3:23)
This verse says, "But God demonstrates his own love for us in this:
While we were still sinners, Christ died for us." (Romans 5:8)
In this passage the Bible clearly explains how simple it is to be saved
and on your way to Heaven, "For if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus
is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead,
you WILL BE SAVED." (Romans 10:9)
You can be saved right now and on your way to Heaven if you will open
your heart to Jesus and pray the following prayer:
Dear Jesus Christ, I want to be saved so that I can have a home in
Heaven when I die. I agree with You that I am a sinner.
I believe You love me and want to save me. I believe that You bled and
died on the cross to pay the penalty for my sins. I believe that You
rose from the dead. Please forgive my sins and come into my heart and
be my Lord and Saviour. Thank You Lord Jesus Christ for forgiving me
and saving me through Your merciful grace. Amen.
You are now a Christian if you said the prayer and allowed God to save
you. Welcome to the family of God.
Salvation is not a reward but a gift. The Bible says it this way, "For
it is by GRACE you have been SAVED, through FAITH and this not from
yourselves, it is the GIFT of God." (Ephesians 2:8)
Nothing in the world is more important than your eternal destiny.
The Bible says, "In Him(Jesus) we have redemption through His blood,
the forgiveness of sins..." (Ephesians 1:7)
If you have not yet made a decision to be saved, please do so now
before it is too late. The reason why it is so important to be saved
now is because you do not know exactly when you will die. You may die
prematurely in a traffic accident, terrorist attack or some other way
before you get another chance to be saved.
The Bible tells us that we will spend eternity in Heaven or a place of
eternal torment called Hell. It would be terrible to die and go to Hell
when all you have to do is accept Jesus Christ as your personal Lord
and Saviour.
Some people that have already made Jesus Christ their Lord and Saviour
worry about losing their salvation. The Bible teaches Christians that
we can never lose our salvation no matter what happens.
The Bible says it this way, "My dear children, I write this to you so
that you will not sin. But if anybody does sin, we have one who speaks
to the Father in our defense Jesus Christ, the Righteous One."
Yes my friend, Jesus Christ is able to save you and keep you saved.
Please tell your family and friends, thanks!
Have a great day!

Message-Id: <1106702373.359465.298200@c13g2000cwb.googlegroups.com>
Hi
I have a database containing text entries, userid and a unique
increasing number.
I have the unique number and userid to one of these rows.
Is there any mysql commands that would let me select the previous and
next (based on the unique number) row for this same userid?..
Example, the database looks like:
row1|text1|userid1|1
row2|text2|userid2|2
row3|text3|userid3|6
row4|text4|userid1|10
row5|text5|userid2|12
row6|text6|userid2|16
row7|text7|userid1|20
row8|text8|userid1|25
row9|text9|userid1|28
Based on knowing the unique number being 20 and userid being "userid1",
I want the query to retrieve only row4, row7 and row8...
Hope it makes sense..
Thanks !

We must first further clarify what we mean when we say "regular expression".
Let's use "Regular Expression" for real mathematical regular expressions
as in a Formal Methods class, and use "regular expression" for pattern
matching in Perl.
(Perl's regexes have been modified so much that they no longer
meet the strict definition required to be called "regular".
)

It is a lot easier to understand if we say it the way the
mathematics folks say it:
A Regular Expression describes a set of strings that conform
to a Regular Grammar.
If the string is in the set described by the regex, the
match "succeeds" (the string is in the language of the grammar),
else it "fails" (the string is not in the language).
> If you don't produce a correct statement because one or more characters
> are misplaced, is it a syntax error or a code error?
I still get the feeling that you don't have a handle on "semantics".
Syntax is dull and uninteresting, it's only purpose is to allow
the machine to understand the statement.
The interesting and useful part is when the machine assigns
some _meaning_ (semantic) to the understood statement and
carries out what was meant.
See how regexes are compiled into a state machine (usually):

According to 'perldoc perlretut' regular expressions get evaluated and
compiled.

This is recommended in all Usenet newsgroups. Here in clpmisc, most
flaming sub-threads are not about any feature of Perl at all! They
are most often for what was seen as a breach of netiquette. If you
have lurked for a bit, then you will know what is expected and won't
make such posts in the first place.
But if you get upset, wait a while before writing your followup. I
recommend waiting at least 30 minutes.

After you have written your followup, wait *another* 30 minutes
