My code:*

Is my RE going to be like that?:
preg_match_all(’/nomeProduto">([a-zA-Z_.0-9/-!\t\n"’\”
:@$])</i’, $www, $name);*

If you have to put OFF-TOPIC in the topic of a topical mailing list,
should
that be a warning that you’re sending to the wrong list?

No, this is because is not related direct with RoR.
But since most of RoR programmers came from PHP, they might give me some
usefil help with this Regular Expression…

Regexp are regexp. It really should not matter how or from what
language they are called, unless the implementation varies. If you
are having problem with constructing a working regexp then you might
find this site worth visiting:

Good luck.

Don’t. Just don’t. Parsing HTML with regexps is a bad idea - get a
real parser, and use it correctly. If you insist on doing it with
regexps, see this link:

That may help.

The implementation does vary. Every regexp parser implements a slightly
different syntax, or so it seems.

If you

Yes, if you’re working with something sufficiently close to Ruby
regexps.

Good luck.

Best,
