Getting code from a section in a html page Can't Post
I'm trying to create a program that grabs a piece of code in a html page and use it in the cgi program. I've tried to use HTML_TokeParser but it only let me use tags like <title> or <img>. What I want is to grab a section not a single tag.

Ex ( this is a piece of what I'm trying to do):

for ($j=0; $j<=$number; $j++)
{ print '<tr>
<td width="100%"><font size="1" face="Verdana">Habilitações '.$j.'<br>
<input type="text" name= "habilitacoes_'.$j.'" size="40"></font></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="100%"><font size="1" face="Verdana"> </font></td>
</tr>'- } #(this is the section I want to grab.

Ok I used something like this:

<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Arial,Helvetica,sans serif">code:</font><HR>

$url="http://www.contifax.com/cgi-bin/curriculum/html/passo3.htm";
$pagina=get($url);</pre><HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

Is it Right?

Now I want to grab what is inside the tag:
<! Temp == ($any characters) -->

Or inside the section:
[section]
($any characters
[/section]

Note: This can have html code such as:

<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Arial,Helvetica,sans serif">code:</font><HR>


<img border="0" src="xxx.jpg"><br><h1>something</h1>
</pre><HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

The ideia is to open a file, grab a piece of the code inside the file and then used it inside a loop. Is something like what you do in the UBB Code:

you find the the [something]text[/something], grab the text inside and them apply the style [something] to the text.

Now apply this ideia to a file and use it in your CGI program.
