[ ok, I'm getting a bit off topic, so I'll take it to private e-mail after
this ]
That would be fine if I had stored the email's separate in the database
(stupid me), but I didn't, and my seed works after the entire html query
is generate from postgresql. So, I've got one long line like this:
<tr><td valign=top align=left>diff</td><td valign=top align=left>Dale
Scheetz <dwarf@polaris.net></td><td valign=top align=left><UL><LI>cmp
works on identical
So I need to start after the second "align=left>" and stop before the next
</td>. Is that sed-able. Cool if it is, no biggie if it isn't.
