regular expressions

Hello to all! I´m doing this work where i have to extract text that is between html tags and curve braces (exs: "<b> bla bla bla </b>" or "( bla bla bla )"). I tried everything and i just can´t do it!
Can you help me by telling me how the regular expression looks like?
Thx

What is supposed to happen with text like this:

<foo> ( bar <baz> fubar </baz> bar ) </foo>

kind regards,

Perhaps you could post (and explain!) what you have tried and I (or someone else) can point you in the right direction.
