PHP - Get HTML Source and read elements

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

I am very new to PHP and trying to read elements of an HTML page.

 

I was able to do below

 

    global $phpname;
    
    $episodePage = file_get_contents($htmlpage);
    
    $dom = new DOMDocument();
    $dom->loadHTML($episodePage);   

However, from the $dom, I want to read a particular element (with ID = XXXXXXXXXXX). I want to get the entire HTML code inside that element.

 

I know that there is function called $dom ->getElementsByTagName(" ").

 

I also  tried $dom->getElementById("XXXXXXXX") but this wont' give me anything.

 

Any idea, how to get the actual HTML source for that entire HTML element. 

 

Any help would really appreciate.
