I figured it out
NSString *s = [NSString stringWithContentsOfURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"http://www.example.com/file.html "]];
NSRange f, l;

f = [s rangeOfString:@" title=\"Title\">"];
if (f.location == NSNotFound) NSLog(@"failed");
s = [s substringFromIndex:f.location + f.length];

l = [s rangeOfString:@"</a>"];
if (l.location == NSNotFound) NSLog(@"failed");
s = [s substringWithRange:NSMakeRange(0, l.location)];

Hello I am trying to find out how to get characters in the middle of two characters I have heard of NSRange but I can't find documentation to it in xcode.

<file:///Developer/Documentation/DocSets/com.apple.ADC_Reference_Library.CoreReference.docset/Contents/Resources/Documents/documentation/Cocoa/Reference/Foundation/Miscellaneous/Foundation_DataTypes/Reference/reference.html >

So here is what I am trying to do in this html page on line there are to points which stays the same and in the middle of the points is what I need here is an example.
<a href="example.com" title="Ttitle">text I want</a>
so I want to get the text in the middle of points title="Ttitle"> and </a>
Here is what I tried and did not work

NSString *url = [NSString stringWithContentsOfURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"http://www.example.com/file.html";]];
NSString *s = url;
NSRange f, l;

f = [url rangeOfString:@"{\" title=\"Ttitle\">"];

Maybe it failed because your source string ("url", which is not a URL, BTW) does NOT have a { character in it? (I'm thinking perhaps you accidently added the { when you typed the ".)
