_StringBetween with text on 2 lines

[Floppy]

Hi, I'm trying to get 'abc' from the following code (extracted from a web page)

class="item">
<div style="display: none;" class="cms">abc</div>

AutoIT script

$body = _IEBodyReadHTML($ie)
$result = _StringBetween($body, 'class="item"> <div style="display: none;" class="cms">', '</div>')

It doesn't find anything because I don't know how to specify that the text is on two lines. Can someone help me, please?

post how you get result

Never mind, just try this.

$body = _IEBodyReadHTML($ie)
$body= StringStripWS($String, 8)
$result = _StringBetween($String, 'class="item"><divstyle="display:none;"class="cms">', '</div>')

first you strip any white space, which includes line feeds and such.

Or more conservative in stripping only linefeeds between > and < tags.

$body = _IEBodyReadHTML($ie)
$body= StringRegExpReplace($body, '>[rn]+<', '><')
$result = _StringBetween($String, '<class="item"><div style="display: none;" class="cms">', '</div>')

Thank you

Why not this? :

$result = _StringBetween($body, 'class="item">' & @CrLf & '<div style="display: none;" class="cms">', '</div>')

I'm always posting these, but I'd rather (and suggest), the use of any DOM object to parse out data from [xml|XML-like] structures.

$oXML=ObjCreate("Microsoft.XMLDOM")
$sXML= '<root><li class="item"><div style="display: none;" class="cms">abc</div></li></root>'
$oXML.loadxml($sXML)
;ConsoleWrite ( $oXML.xml & @CRLF )
$oElement = $oXML.SelectSingleNode ( "//li[@class='item']/div[@class='cms']" )
ConsoleWrite ( $oElement.text & @CRLF )

_Stringbetween returns array. Maybe you dont convert it into string. Msgbox wont show anything. Search in help file for arraytostring or something like that (forgot..)
