I'm trying to create an application that stores details from another website. I've successfully downloaded the webpage - that was the easy bit - now I want to be able to pick out specific details from the page. Unfortunately, the designer of the page didn't do nice things like put summary bits in tables, or <!-- --> labelling to say what everything is within the page! So, I've got the following string, the info I want is the address (House, Sandbrook Park<BR>Sandbrook Way <B>Rochdale</B> Lancashire OL11 1SA) and the telephone no (Tel : 01706 745832). Can someone suggest a way of going through the string to find the relevant bits - is split the easiest way?
