clean sentence from Title

How can I clean from the Title a sentence like "aaa bbb ccc"
So if I have title like "aaa bbb ccc ddd eee fff"
I will get
"ddd eee fff"
and it will delete just if in the Title there is sentence exactly like the sentence.
So if I have "bbb ccc ddd eee fff" it will not delete noting.

Something like this should work:

clean_the_title

Code:
sub { 
   my $to_clean = qq|aaa bbb ccc|; 
   my $tmp = $_[0]; 
   $tmp =~ s/\Q$to_clean//g; 
   return $tmp; 
}

..and call with:

<%clean_the_title($Title)%>

Cheers

How are you calling the global?

Also, what does the global look like now (I'm assuming its not just aaa bbb =))

..oh, and what does <%Title%> look like normally?

Mmm, that should work fine :/

The only thing I can think of - is maybe its a different "case" (i.e some capitals)

Try:
