string.find fails to find?

[LemonYourAid]

Hey guys, I've been having a problem with string.find lately. It was working before, but for some odd reason it just decided to stop functioning.

Here is the code I'm using.

function httpCallBack(contents , size)
	local find = string.find(contents,"<br>")
	if(find == nil)then
		local songname = string.sub(contents, 1, find-1)
		local time = string.sub(contents,find+4)
		PrintMessage(HUD_PRINTTALK, songname.. " - " .. time.."mins. (Added to queue)")
		time=tonumber(time)
		if(time>10)then
			time=10
		end
		time=(time/60)+CurTime()
		playnext=time
	else
		PrintMessage(HUD_PRINTTALK, contents.." (string find failed?)")
	end
	//table.Add(song_queue,time)
	//table.Add(song_queue,songname)
end

As you can see I've added a fail-safe for when "find" is nil, but it seems to be nil 100% of the time. In chat I keep getting, "Title of the song <br> 1.85 ". Any ideas what's going wrong here?

EDIT: Ahh, nvm I mad a stupid mistake. My fail-safe, was actually 100% fail. Funny, I added it because I got a runtime error with find being nil, heh.
