Preg Match - get a code from a html section using preg_match

Question

I would like to use preg_match in PHP to parse out the content of the div with the id "codigoImagem" from the following html section:

<tbody>
 <tr valign="bottom">
  <td>
   <img src="../../imagens/boleto/logo_boleto.gif" width="236" height="30" alt="Bradesco |237-2|">
   <span class="codigo">
    <div id="codigoImagem">2379285923  59799.436395  57000.723007  1  57160000036698</div>
   </span>
  </td>
 </tr>
</tbody>

The answer is: you *don't* want to use `preg_match` for that. See the linked question marked as a possible duplicate above. — Dan Fego, May 31 '13 at 19:16

The good way is to use the DOMDocument for that:

$doc = new DOMDocument();
@$doc->loadHTML($html);
$result = $doc->getElementById("codigoImagem")->nodeValue;
var_dump($result);
