[xymcrush17]

Hello

Need a help

 

How to parse file_get_content into an array?

<?php

include_once('get_data.php');//simple_html_dom.php

$postdata = http_build_query(
    array(
        'id' => 'xxx',
        
    )
);
 
$opts = array('http' =>
    array(
        'method'  => 'POST',
        'header'  => 'Content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded',
        'content' => $postdata
    )
);
 
$context  = stream_context_create($opts);
 
$result = file_get_contents('http://localhost/test.php', false, $context);

I want only get a text that in attribute <div id="console"> YYYY </div> based on $result

So what have you tried so far? Your code doesn't show any parsing attempts.

 

The task looks rather strange. You're posting data to your own scripts and scraping the response. How will the final application look like? Where does the data go? Why do you have to resort to scraping?

 

Your choice of tools is strange as well. Consider using cURL with a standard HTML parser like DOMDocument.
