How to search the phrase of numbers

Hi,Dear all,

I am trying to search the phrase of numbers in a html page in the
sentence below:

(253 items)

I used this piece of code, but it does not work,

limit= page.search(“div[class=Results]”).search(“div”).gsub(“items”,"")

     begin
   Integer(limit)
rescue
   return 0

end

Would you give me any suggestion on this?

Thank you,
Regards,
Di

Break apart the chain of method calls above, and see what each is
returning.
