Help regarding Perl regular expression. Can't Post
We have a perl script. In this script we want regular expression for the below mentioned code.

Input Text :
<ResourceCompile>
<PreprocessorDefinitions>NDEBUG;%(PreprocessorDefinitions)</PreprocessorDefinitions>
<Culture>0x0409</Culture>
<AdditionalIncludeDirectories>res\us;res;..\dlls;%(AdditionalIncludeDirectories)</AdditionalIncludeDirectories>
<ResourceOutputFileName>$(IntDir)$(ProjectName).res</ResourceOutputFileName>
</ResourceCompile>
<ClCompile>
<Optimization>Disabled</Optimization>
<InlineFunctionExpansion>OnlyExplicitInline</InlineFunctionExpansion>
<FavorSizeOrSpeed>Size</FavorSizeOrSpeed>
<AdditionalIncludeDirectories>$(ProjectDir)h;$(ProjectDir)db;$(ProjectDir);..\dlls;%(AdditionalIncludeDirectories)</AdditionalIncludeDirectories>
</ClCompile>

Output should be:
the content present in <AdditionalIncludeDirectories> tag (of <ResourceCompile> tag only. Not from <ClCompile> tag).
e.g. res\us;res;..\dlls;%(AdditionalIncludeDirectories)

We need an expression which returns contents of <AdditionalIncludeDirectories> present in <ResourceCompile> tag.

Request you to give some inputs on this.

It is seldom a good idea to try to parse HTML with regular expressions. There are just to many special cases. Use a module from CPAN. Perhaps someone else can recommend which one.
Good Luck,
Bill
