There are man html reader libraries out there. I have used one for perl for
example. It enables you to look for some other tag to find your data (eg
the css class name of that particular element) and rip the data by walking
the html tree.
Pick a language and let us know I am sure you will get specific
recommendations on html reader / parser libraries. (eg html agility for C#)

Subject: [SLUG] script help with grep or regex ?
I have a shell script that gets a web page, after around half dozen
sed/awk one liners I end up with like[1]:
I would like to extract all the 7 digit numeric values, currently starting
with '313....', to use them further in the script
I'm hoping there is some better way ? (rather what I'm doing, 'grep 313')
