regex cdata in perl file

Question

help me please

in terminal :

C no longer supported in regex; marked by <-- HERE in m/<host><!\[\ <-- HERE CDATA\[(.*)\]\]\></host>/

code in my file perl

if ($html =~ /<host><!\[\CDATA\[(.*)\]\]\><\/host>/)

What would be the best way of approaching this?

thanks you

The best way to approach it would be to use an HTML/XML parser. — Matt Jacob, Nov 30 '16 at 23:48

\C should be C.

This is the answer. There is an extra \ before the `CDATA`. The error message shows the precise spot of the error. – dgw Dec 01 '16 at 11:35
