i want to grap data from this site using RegExp http://www.islamqa.com/en/ref/20494 specially data in div with class="subject-container"

i tried this

/<div class="subject-container">(.*?)<\/div>\s*/is

but it gave me Invalid RegExp

why?

Don't try to parse HTML with regex. If you tell us what language you're using, we can suggest simple and effective HTML parsing libraries. — Matthew Flaschen, Apr 17 '10 at 04:03
You can go this route if you want a lifetime of pain and suffering :) Do not try to parse HTML with regex! — Vivin Paliath, Apr 17 '10 at 04:09

inside html code:

<div class="subject-container" >

possibly missed one space

/<div class="subject-container"\s*>(.*?)...
