PHP DOMDocument - get html source of BODY
I have the following code as a variable and trying to grab everything in between the body tags (while keeping the p tags etc). Whats the best way of doing this?
strpos / substr
<head>
<title></title>
</head>
<body>
<p>Services Calls2</p>
</body>
Neither. You can use a XML parser, like DomDocument:
$dom = new DOMDocument();
$dom->loadHTML($var);
$body = $dom->getElementsByTagName('body')->item(0);
$content = '';
foreach($body->childNodes as $child)
$content .= $dom->saveXML($child);
I recommend you to use preg_match because contents between <p>Services Calls2</p> can change all the time then subtr or strpos is going to require quite controversial code.
Example:
$a = '<h2><p>Services Calls2</p></h2>';
preg_match("/<p>(?:\w|\s|\d)+<\/p>/", $a, $ar);
var_dump($ar);
The regex is going to allow alphabets, space and digits only.
Try this, $html has the text:
$s = strpos($html, '<body>') + strlen('<body>');
$f = '</body>';
echo trim(substr($html, $s, strpos($html, $f) - $s));
