Search problem

[programingnoob]

Hi,
I have this search problem. I just can't master the search functions...

I have this script

use warnings;
open IN, "results.htm" or die "error";
@content = <IN>;
close IN;

foreach $ln (@content) {

$ln =~ /.gif' width=30 height=30 border=1></a></td><td bgcolor='#ffffcc' align=left><a href='games.html?type=beat&shade_id=(\d+)'>/ && print;
$al[1]=$1;
$al[2]=$2;
$al[3]=$3;
$al[4]=$4;
$al[5]=$5;
$al[6]=$6;
$al[7]=$7;
$al[8]=$8;
$al[9]=$9;
$al[10]=$10;
$al[11]=$11;

}

I got lots of errors.

However, i soon found out the the \ can be used to eliminate some of tthe errors. But I don't know where to put them. Also, I need the search results to be the numbers, which is (\d+) (\d is a shortcut for numbers and + means any quanity). And () means save it to $1
However, I'm sure that there will be more than result, how can I save them all?

Thanks

Correction:

The search should bring more than 1 result. And I used (\d+) to save it to $1, $2, $3.... so on. However, I am not sure if this works, because there will be more than 1 line that will match this search. Will the last match on the last line override all the previous matches on the previous lines? I am not sure, because I do not know how $1 works. Also, should I put the searched document (result.htm) into a scalar variable instead? That way, I can search through the entire document in 1 search only, so all the $1, $2 won't have a chance to be override, but, the $1 might be deleted before it gets saved to another variable... hm...

Can anyone solve my problem and fix the search part?

Thanks again
