Scrape web page contents

by

Definitely go with PHP Simple HTML DOM Parser. It’s fast, easy and super flexible. It basically sticks an entire HTML page in an object then you can access any element from that object.

Like the example of the official site, to get all links on the main Google page:

// Create DOM from URL or file
$html = file_get_html('http://www.google.com/');

// Find all images 
foreach($html->find('img') as $element) 
       echo $element->src . '<br>';

// Find all links 
foreach($html->find('a') as $element) 
       echo $element->href . '<br>';
