savagenoob Posted January 30, 2011 Author Share Posted January 30, 2011 I tried this too, no luck, i hate regex. Actually, <d >(.*?)<\/d> kinda works, it pulls the first few entries then stops after an agency name for some reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sasa Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 are you use moditer s for multi-line contest <?php $test = ' <div class="agent_display"> <dl> <dt>INSZONE INS. SERVICES INC.</dt> <dd>7200 Fair Oaks Blvd.</dd> <dd>Suite 210</dd> <dd>Carmichael, CA 95608</dd> <dd>Phone: (888) 988-9948</dd> <dd>Fax: (916) 486-4335</dd> <dd>Hours: </dd> <dd>M - F 8:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.</dd> <dd>License: OF82764</dd> <dd><a href="http://agents.mercuryinsurance.com/agentlocator/DisplayQuote.do?AgentCode=045238"><img src="images/faa_agents_button_contact.gif" alt="Contact this agent" /></a> </dd> </dl><br class="clear" /> </div><!-- close agent_display --> '; preg_match('/<div class=("|\')agent_display("|\')>(.*?)<\/div>/s', $test, $out); print_r($out); ?> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.josh Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 You really should be using an xml or dom parser instead of regex for this sort of thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savagenoob Posted January 30, 2011 Author Share Posted January 30, 2011 I wish there was an easier way but how when its not in xml format... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
salathe Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 DOM understands well-formed (and is quiet lenient with badly-formed) HTML just fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
