Well, but

   </td><td><div>UBS Investment Bank</div></td><td><div></div></td><td
   class="right "><div>31,955</div></td><td class="right " style=

as I found it in the link you provided does not match

    field="previous_close_v">(\d+,\d+).*

for the price. So the structure for XAG seems to differ for those from other 
securities. Maybe Volker can help out to create a set of patterns for XAG that 
you can use.
