in thread Regex optimization

Thank you for the prompt response.
First off, as I said a lot of regexes escapes me, so reminding me that I can use (#) instead of repitition was good.
Second, while I did remove the checks for the extra <font> tags I did indeed forget that I needn't check for the <td> tags either.
Third, while I'd imagine that this works for the parts involved I do not need either of the nbsp's or the letter that may be in their place, but the data in between them is important.

Thank you for all the help.

    No! # is a comment (the x modifier allows you to do this...)

      Thank you, I realize that # is a comment. In this case I was using it in it's more common meaning, to signify a number.
