Hi all

I have a small program which captures the output of a webpage and puts the
data in to a string variable.
I then use teh strip tags function of php to clean it up a bit.

then i want to use regular expressions to extract all the numbers from the
page ..they are like this usually numbers.numbers (IE: 40.40 ).

For some reason my expressions are not matching anything in the string
unless i type exactly what i am looking for... could the fact that there
are line reurns in the string be causing a problem? or do i need to
somehow tell php to goto the next line?

I had an older version of the program which saved teh data to a file and
then PhP scanned the file line by line..this worked...but i'm trying to
make a more elegant solution that won;t kill my hard drive faster ;)

Any tips appreciated...

John
