I am trying to grab the following information with my crawler and am having trouble with the format. I want to grab whatever number value is in this piece of html. like in this for example "148Mb".

<span class="size">| 148Mb</span>

here is what im trying to use that is not working
/<span class\=\"size\"\>\| ([\d+\.]{0,12} [A-Za-z]{2})\<\/span\>/

can someone help me get this correct please? Thanks.

its not displaying what i typed correctly so here it is with no tags.
/<span class\=\"size\"\>\| ([\d+\.]{0,12} [A-Za-z]{2})\<\/span\>/

Untested:


'#<span class\=\"size\"\>\|.*?([\d]{0,12}[a-z]{2})\<\/span\>#i'

Untested:


'#<span class\=\"size\"\>\|.*?([\d]{0,12}[a-z]{2})\<\/span\>#i'


that seems to do alot more than what i had but it still is not grabbing the size.

nevermind it is working. there was an error with my coding. thanks alot for your help! :thumbsup:
