I am trying to get ex-dividend date from MarketWatch.com. So far I have located the security page, but searching the page has found the wrong text. This is the function call:

=smfGetTagContent("http://www.marketwatch.com/investing/stock/"&L71,"div",1,"Ex dividend date",,,,2)

I am stumbling over the Tag argument, which is think is the problem. The function documentation does not describe what the various choices mean. I have the page source if that will help. Can anyone help?

This is the HTML that should be found:

<div class="section heavy">
<p class="column">Ex dividend date</p>
<p class="data lastcolumn">6/28/16</p>
</div>

The result is blanks.

dividend date")
