Find price in string

Both solutions works :)

When I test the accepted solution I get 349 - where you want 49 - not sure how that equates to a working solution?

For the accepted solution to work on your data you would need to do this

$('.product-price').contents().eq(2).text()

Select allOpen in new window

When I test the accepted solution I get 349

@Julian, that's odd.
This fiddle shows I get 49,00.

<div class="product-price">
   <span class="price">
      <strike>349,00&nbsp;</strike>
    </span>
    49,00&nbsp;
   <span class="currency">DKK</span>
</div>

Select allOpen in new window

When you dump this with

console.log($('.product-price').contents());

Select allOpen in new window

Gives the following

{…}
0: #text "
   "
1: <span class="price">
2: #text "
    49,00 
   "
3: <span class="currency">
4: #text "
"

Select allOpen in new window

There is an empty text node linked to the original <div> that increases the index of the target node which is the third (index 2) element.

Here is a link to working sample. Use F12 to view the results

aha. that's because I used the HTML as provided by the OP. yours has indentation and line-breaks hence the additional text node.

Ok but you cannot rely on a solution that requires the formatting of the html to be laid out in a certain way. One space in that line i.e

<div class="product-price"> <span class="price"><strike>349,00&nbsp;</strike></span>49,00&nbsp;<span class="currency">DKK</span></div>

Select allOpen in new window

And the solution breaks.
