Returning info between two known elements

[IamStang]

I have a need to return the information submitted between 2 known elements. For example, a person submits the following:

Today is the <b>22nd</b> day of December.

I need to return "22nd" or whatever might appear between the <b> and </b>.

Please dont give me actual code to do this. Just point me in the right direction. I know it has to be something fairly simple that I am just overlooking.

Thanks!

Look in the string library of functions. You will need to do what is called "parsing" of tokens within a text stream.

I won't name the function, but think of finding a string within an string.
