Extract full contents of the <table> tag inlcudingnested tables

[Cyrill]

I am trying to extract a certain table from a web site I get with
cfhttp.FileContent. There is a function at cflib that extracts tag content but
it does not work if there are nested tables inside.Does anyone know of a UDF
that would span nested tags and extract the whole table corretly?

Here is the function I found, but it will just look for the first closing tag
end exit
function getTagContent(tag,str) {
var matchStruct = structNew();
var startTag = "<#tag#[^>]*>";
var endTag = "</#tag#>";
var endTagStart = 0;
matchStruct = REFindNoCase(startTag,str,1,"true");
if(matchStruct.len[1] eq 0 ) return "";
endTagStart = REFindNoCase(endTag,str,matchStruct.pos[1],"false");
return
Mid(str,matchStruct.pos[1]+matchStruct.len[1],endTagStart-matchStruct.pos[1]-mat
chStruct.len[1]);
}
Any ideas how to maybe modify it?

TIA

I'd try to parse it as an xml document with XMLParse(). It might be sensitive to invalid missing closing tags, etc., but there's a good chance the table's got all of its end tags. So I'd try it.
