Hi,

I am having trouble writing a regular expression to get the contents of meta tags from a page.

Here's what I use now
$results =~ m/\s?name="keywords"?.?content=\"([^>]*)\">/isg

And it doesn't extract keywords from time to time. Sometimes because they are written like
name="keywords"
content="asda"
and sometimes for no apparent reason.

Can someone help me with a better regexp that will be able to handle different ways people can write <meta name="keywords" content="asd">?

Or if someone can point me to a script that does something similar?
thanks in advance

thanks a lot

I've tested it with about 15 sites now and seems to get all the meta tags.

thanks again.
