What do you know about the HTML page? Do you know its general structure? 
Is it written in correct HTML or are closing tags missing all over the 
place?

Usually you can use a combination of looping and regular expressions. 
But imagine what happens with the following code if the title of the 
page is missing or is not properly closed.

<cfset title = REReplaceNoCase(cfhttp.filecontent, 
"^.*<title[^]*>(.*)</title[^]*>.*$","\1")>
