Need help getting text between tags

[Baquanb@yahoo.com]

I need to get some text between font tags but I only need the text in
the last table. The code i'm using below will get text between all font
tags anyone know how I can just get whats in TABLE3 font tags.

$url = "http://www.mysite.com" ;
$data = implode("", file($url));
preg_match_all ("/<td>([^`]*?)<\/td>/", $data, $matches);

foreach ($matches[0] as $match) {

preg_match ("/<font>([^`]*?)&nbsp;<\/font>/", $match, $temp);
$text = $temp['1'];
$text= strip_tags($tex t);

echo $text;

}

TABLE1
<table>
<td>
<font>text1</font>
<b>something</b>
</td>
<td>
<font>text2</font>
<b>something</b>
</td>
<td>
<font>text3</font>
<b>something</b>
</td>
</table>

TABLE2
<table>
<td>
<font>text4</font>
<b>something</b>
</td>
<td>
<font>text5</font>
<b>something</b>
</td>
<td>
<font>text6</font>
<b>something</b>
</td>
</table>

TABLE3
<table>
<td>
<font>text7</font>
<b>something</b>
</td>
<td>
<font>text8</font>
<b>something</b>
</td>
<td>
<font>text9</font>
<b>something</b>
</td>
<td>
<font>text10</font>
<b>something</b>
</td>
</table>

One posibility is to give the font tags a css id or class then just
include that in your preg_match statement. If table code is php
generated then think about id'ing each font tage based on what table
its in (i.e. <font id="table2">tex t</font>)
