I have a variable ( $page ) that contains HTML code as follows: <html>

I have a variable ($page) that contains HTML code as follows:

<html>
    <head>head</head>
    <body>
        <strong>12</strong>
        recommendations 
        <br />
        <strong>50</strong>
        connections
    </body>
</html>

Now I want to get the number of connections (in this case it’s 50) with a regular expression in PHP, so I use this:

preg_match('#<strong>(.*)</strong>#', $page, $connections)

But this gets 12, not 50. How can I solve this problem?

    preg_match('/<strong>([0-9]*)<\/strong>\s+connections/', $page, $connections);
    
    echo $connections[1]; // 50
