So how do I make it only read .jp and only that not ad the g or any other letter after...?
Thanks again!

in this simple case, you don't need regex. Normal string checking will do
pseudocode:

Code

if (mystring == "jp" ){ 
........ 
}

use the equality operator.

== is for numbers
"eq" is for strings

that's one of the things i hate about Perl. Why have 2 syntax to check for equality. anyway, that said, its just a pseudocode for OP to explore, not a full solution.
