Error in expression regular with preg_match 3

Question

<td><strong>Puesto:</strong></td>
<td>PUESTO CABECERA MUNICIPAL                                                                                               </td>

I'm have this expression regular

preg_match("%<td><strong>Puesto:</strong></td><td>(.*)<\/td>%si",$data,$puesto); but not it works

You need to edit your question and make it clear what you are wanting. It is currently *unclear*. — James, Mar 20 '15 at 04:03
You don't have the closing `` in your example, so it wouldn't match. As aside, you shouldn't be parsing HTML with regex. *Edit:* oh wait, its just way out on the gas. Still don't do it! — scrowler, Mar 20 '15 at 04:03

You might want this:

$ok = preg_match('%<strong>Puesto:</strong>.+?<td>(.+?)</td>%si', $data, $puesto);

Don't forget to use ? to make expressions into non-greedy!
