Venerable Monks,

I'm trying to extract some info from a HTML-page. The information looks like <div>important_info_here</div> and there are many div-tags that I'm interested in. I want to store all info in an array. I have done something like: 

...
$content = get_content($url);
@results = ($content =~ /<div>(.+)<\/div>/s);

foreach(@results)
{
 print;
}

but I only get one match. What have I forgotten? I have searched through the monastery to no avail.

Update: Thanks for the replies! I followed tachyon's advice and did it this way: 

@divs = $content =~ m/<\s*div[^>]*>(.+?)<\s*\/div>/sig;

I agree it would be better to use a real HTML parser, if I needed to extract more info.
