PHP How to regex preg_match date from html page

Question

I want to fetch date from these html tags via regex preg_match

<span>User Signup Date: </span><span class="normal">Aug 24, 2015</span>

I just want to fetch only date Aug 24, 2015, every HTML page contain different dates. but all HTML pages contain same

<span>User Signup Date: </span><span class="normal"> 

HTML tag before date.

Please tell me what regex formula i have to use ?

 Note: HTML page contain many other <span class="normal"> HTML tags.
 So you must have to fetch date from this unique HTML tag 
 which contain <span>User Signup Date: </span> 
 BEFORE <span class="normal">

Your help will be appreciated!

Answer 1

Try this:

<span>User Signup Date: <\/span>.*(?:<span class="date">)([^\<]+)
