I have found the following on-line tool useful for debugging regular
expressions. The regular expression is applied to the content of the text
box so you get feedback on what is being matched by each part of the
expression.
http://gskinner.com/RegExr/
To quote from the description of the tool "RegExr is built with Flex 3, and
uses ActionScript 3's built in RegExp engine.". Thus, it is almost certain
that there are differences in the regular expression syntax for Flex 3 and
Perl.
