Best Way to extract Numbers from String

[Jimbo]

Hello

I am trying to grab some numbers from a string containing HTML text.
Can you suggest any good functions that I could use to do this? What
would be the easiest way to extract the following numbers from this
string...

My String has this layout & I have commented what I want to grab:
[CODE] """</th>
				<td class="last">43.200 </td>
				<td class="change indicator" nowrap>0.040 </td>

                                                   <td>43.150 </td> #
I need to grab this number only
				<td>43.200 </td>
                                                   <td>43.130 </td> #
I need to grab this number only
				<td>43.290 </td> 				             <td>43.100 </td> # I need to
grab this number only
				<td>7,450,447 </td>
				<td class="middle"><a

a></td>
