Menu
when I tried to curl some pages.
curl http://test.com
I can get like following result
<html>
<body>
<div>
<dl>
<dd> 10 times </dd>
</dl>
</div>
</body>
</html>
my desired result is like simply 10 times..
Are there any good way to achieve this ?
If someone has opinion please let me know
Thanks

If you are are unable to use a html parser for what ever reason, for your given simple html example, you could use:
curl http://test.com | sed -rn 's@(^.*<dd>)(.*)(</dd>)@\2@p'
Redirect the output of the curl command into sed and enable regular expression interpretation with -r or -E. Split the lines into three sections and substitute the line for the second section only, printing the result.
