I have a trouble. Using the $html->load_file method, it shows errors if a page doesn't exist.
The error says: 'Warning: file_get_contents(http://auto.desko.kg/car/24779): failed to open stream: HTTP request failed! HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found in C:\xampp\htdocs\deskoparse\simple_html_dom.php on line 1080'. Is it possible to add checks to the parser so it could find out if such a page exists, and also why that mthod doesn't return 'True' if a page exists?

I have been experiencing the error "Warning: file_get_contents(): stream does not support seeking..." since I upgraded to PHP 7.1.x

Any fixes ?

Here is an updated package for this library:

composer require caophihung94/php-simple-html-dom-parser

Here is my testing code:

$CC = <<<EOF
<p style="max-width: 100%; min-height: 1em; white-space: pre-wrap; color: rgb(62, 62, 62); text-align: center; font-family: 微软雅黑; font-size: 14px; line-height: 24px; box-sizing: border-box !important; word-wrap: break-word !important; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><img img_width="500" img_height="398" data-type="jpeg" data-ratio="NaN" data-w="0" width="auto" width="auto" data-src="http://mmbiz.qpic.cn/mmbiz/fZ6yVsBCVhLQdrDUBay4Ps1qhhKGiadibMIdicxOXx74cXsIVxk0Emib1XpZxHUXLuToWEMibPRr0I8noqtuWZfowNg/640?wx_fmt=jpeg"/></p>
EOF;

//well, load the class as u often do
//Loader::import('SimpleHtmlDom', 'html');
$DOM    = str_get_html($CC);
if ( $DOM == false )
{
    return false;
}

echo $DOM->innertext;

and output is:

<p style="max-width: 100%; min-height: 1em; white-space: pre-wrap; color: rgb(62, 62, 62); text-align: center; font-family: 微软雅黑; font-size: 14px; line-height: 24px; box-sizing: border-box !important; word-wrap: break-word !important; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><img img_width="500" img_height="398" data-type="jpeg" data-ratio="NaN" data-w="0" width="auto"></p>

well, something is missing.

if i comment the code fragment bettween line 1488 to 1491 and i would got what i want:

if (isset($node->attr[$name]))
{
    return;
}

it maybe a bug!

As far as I can determine, Simple HTML DOM does not have a way to actually remove DOM elements from a document. This can be troublesome, especially if you're using mpdf to make a PDF file and there's an <svg> tag in there; mpdf flips out whenever it sees one.

There may be a good reason removeChild() has not been implemented, but as a suggestion for a future update, could such a function be implemented?

The parser won't find "<p class="body"" in this line:
<script id="forecast-summary-0" type="text/x-jquery-tmpl"> <div id="forecast-summary" class="summary-column"> <h3>Forecast Summary</h3> <div class="forecast-summary" lang="en-GB"> <ul > <li> <h4 class="title">This Evening and Tonight</h4> <p class="body">Fairly cloudy this evening with scattered heavy showers, which gradually ease through the evening. However cloud thickeing overnight to bring periods of occasionally heavy rain before dawn as southeast winds increase strong to near gale.</p> </li> </ul> </div> </div> </script> (all one line). I Use "$body = $body[0]->find('p[body]');" to find it but it returns no results. Is there something I've missed, can you help???

find method cannot find tag that has additional classes.

For example, I want to find all tags that have 'services' class:

<div class='services'> or
<div class='services last-item'> or
<div class='services active'>

But, If I run:

$html->find('div[class=services]'); 

I will only get one result:

<div class='services'>

This pattern:

([\w-:*])(?:#([\w-]+)|.([\w-]+))?(?:[@?(!?[\w-:]+)(?:([!^$]?=)["']?(.*?)["']?)?])?([/, ]+)
Treats the - in both the character groups as ranges rather than characters to match meaning that the regex is looking for everything including and between \w-: rather than the three characters by themselves. The same issue is repeated near the middle of the regex.

See pr #70

is there a way to avoid something like this???

$dom = HtmlDomParser::str_get_html($html_str);

if($dom->find('h1', 0))
    return $dom->find('h1', 0)->plaintext;
if($dom->find('h2', 0))
    return $dom->find('h2', 0)->plaintext;
if($dom->find('h3', 0))
    return $dom->find('h3', 0)->plaintext;
if($dom->find('h4', 0))
    return $dom->find('h4', 0)->plaintext;

If you use php 7.3 and higher, then use my edits. Otherwise, you will get errors due to migration to PCRE2 in new versions of PHP.

For example: Warning: preg_match_all (): Compilation failed: invalid range in character class at offset 4

When I use your library together with Laravel and take advantage of Laravel's possibility to start local development server using command php artisan serve I run into an issue where Laravel server gets stuck in an endless loop of calls to simple_html_dom_node->__destruct(). After maximum execution time is exceeded, Laravel server calls:

Laravel development server started: <http://127.0.0.1:8000>
[Thu Jun 14 09:24:43 2018] PHP Fatal error:  Maximum execution time of 60 seconds exceeded in C:\Users\[REDACTED]\Desktop\Tests\PHP\blog\blog\vendor\sunra\php-simple-html-dom-parser\Src\Sunra\PhpSimple\simplehtmldom_1_5\simple_html_dom.php on line 140
[Thu Jun 14 09:24:43 2018] PHP Stack trace:
[Thu Jun 14 09:24:43 2018] PHP   1. simplehtmldom_1_5\simple_html_dom_node->__destruct() C:\Users\[REDACTED]\Desktop\Tests\PHP\blog\blog\vendor\sunra\php-simple-html-dom-parser\Src\Sunra\PhpSimple\simplehtmldom_1_5\simple_html_dom.php:0

I debugged the issue for a while but could not resolve it by any other way than to delete/rename/comment-out your destructors in mentioned class.

Minimum, Complete and Verifiable example/Steps to reproduce:

1. Create Laravel project by running composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel blog
2. cd blog and update composer.json with required dependency to your library "sunra/php-simple-html-dom-parser": "^1.5"
3. Run composer update to fetch newly added dependency.
4. Open file routes/web.php and update its contents to contain following

use Sunra\PhpSimple\HtmlDomParser;
Route::get('/',  function(){
    $input = <<<EOM
    <!-- PUT YOUR NON-TRIVIAL HTML MARKUP HERE -->                    
EOM;
    $parser = new HtmlDomParser();
    $dom = $parser->str_get_html($input);


    return view('welcome');
});

(1) Note that <!-- YOUR NON-TRIVIAL HTML MARKUP HERE --> should really be replaced with non-trivial markup, e.g. google.com's source from front-page.
5. Start local development server php artisan serve and access used address (it defaults to 127.0.0.1:8000)

(2) Note I was not able to reproduce it using on PHPv7.1.14 or PHPv7.1, but PHPv7.1.13, PHPv7.1.18 and even PHPv7.2 do suffer from this behavior.

I worked-around this issue by setting up composer script on post-autoload-dump event where I search and destroy (rename) your destructors.

PROBLEM
When parsing a document having: <input name="me" value="my { dog is nice"> the document is parsed in an invalid way. The value property for $input in

   foreach($this->html->find('input[name='me']') as $input)

is "my {dog is nice" plus all remaining HTML, instead of "my {dog is nice".

WORKAROUND
I commented $this->remove_noise("'({\w)(.*?)(})'s", true); in the load method, but I guess an improvement in remove_noise in order to be aware of quotes would be a better solution.

Regards, Pablo.

Hi sunra, I am having an issue using Simple HTML DOM Parser. Have used it several times before but until now I came across this issue:

When searching for TDs, when there is a blank TD (with   or no content) I get as a result the next TDs.

I have found also that someone reported the same on Stackoverflow: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11123267/simple-html-dom-parser-return-empty-td-with-all-tds-values

Example as a result of var_dumping $html->find('td'); (element 2 should be blank!):

The recent changes on composer.json file is in master branch and as the default version is 1.5.1, its needed to merge the composer.json file from master to 1.5.1 branch.

I'm having some trouble trying to parse documents > MAX_FILE_SIZE. Since this is a constant, I can't redefine this in a clean way. I think you could define this as a public static var in class simple_html_dom_node and use it from there.

A HTML DOM parser written in PHP - let you manipulate HTML in a very easy way! This is a fork of PHP Simple HTML DOM Parser project but instead of string manipulation we use DOMDocument and modern php classes like "Symfony CssSelector".

• PHP 7.0+ Support
• PHP-FIG Standard
• Composer & PSR-4 support
• PHPUnit testing via Travis CI
• PHP-Quality testing via SensioLabsInsight
• UTF-8 Support (more support via "voku/portable-utf8")
• Invalid HTML Support (partly ...)
• Find tags on an HTML page with selectors just like jQuery
• Extract contents from HTML in a single line

Hello,

I am looping through a HTML string as follows:

	foreach ( $dom->find( 'text' ) as $element ) {
		
		if ( !in_array( $element->parent()->tag, $excludedParents ) ) {				
			$element->innertext = preg_replace(
				'/(?<!\w)' . preg_quote( $search, "/" ) . '(?!\w)/i',
				$replace,
				$element->innertext
			);
		}
	}

This works fine for excluded parents like a, div or em, but not for a.test or div#test. Is there an elegant way to solve that?

When you attempt to get the text of an element that has no html elements in it it returns a non-utf-8 encoded string. An element such as

<h3>Технические работы на сервере<h3>

the string returned by innerText() is not encoded properly but the string returned by outerText() is returned with the proper encoding. This refers to the simple_html_dom_node class.

Is it possible to extract contents of first text node?
I.e. string Hello in subtree

<div>
    Hello
    <strong>World!</strong>
</div>

(1/1) ErrorException
file_get_contents(): stream does not support seeking

$html = HtmlDomParser::file_get_html('http://www.google.com/');

foreach($html->find('a') as $element)
echo $element->href . '
';

By running composer validate
we get following.

"./composer.json" does not match the expected JSON schema:
   - authors[0].name : The property name is required

Note: I have the patch file but do not have access push to repository to create pull request

So, the page that I am parsing. It has a td tag within that in some cases it has a tag and in some cases it doesn't have.
However, i have tried this $row->find('td', 2)->find('a', 0) and it says can't find value on null.
Is there anyway to find the child exists or not?

One way that I have found is count($row->find('td', 2)->find('a', 0)) and if it returns 1 basically there's a child and otherwise none.
Is there any other way to find it?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,

First of all, thanks for this great tool. I'm having a little problem. When I use either HtmlDomParser::file_get_html($urlOfThePage), or get the html of the file with curl and use HtmlDomParser::file_get_html($str) for one specific html page, those functions return false. They are perfectly working fine with other pages but this one. Why would that be?

Thanks.

I've stumble upon edge case where html reached MAX_FILE_SIZE constant, it would be nice to be able to increase it.

It could be implemented really easy just checking if not already defined, then user could redefine it as necessary.

Even better would be exception to know what happened without diving into library code itself.

Hello and thank you for your great work,

I'm using php-simple-html-dom-parser in a free project and try to solve a bug that occurred.

This is my code:

 foreach ( $dom->find( 'text' ) as $element ) {
 				if ( !in_array( $element->parent()->tag, [ 'a', 'pre', 'code' ] ) ) {
 					foreach ( $markers as $marker ) {
 						$text               = $marker[ 'text' ];
 						$url                = $marker[ 'url' ];
 						$tip                = strip_tags( $marker[ 'excerpt' ] );
 						$tooltip            = ( $tooltip ? "data-uk-tooltip title='$tip'" : "" );
 						$tmpval             = "tmpval-$i";
 						$element->innertext = preg_replace(
 							'/\b' . preg_quote( $text, "/" ) . '\b/i',
 							"<a href='$url' $hrefclass target='$target' $tmpval>\$0</a>",
 							$element->innertext,
 							1
 						);

 						$element->innertext = str_replace( $tmpval, $tooltip, $element->innertext );
 						$i++;
 					}
 				}
				
 			}

This code searches for text on a page and replaces words with other words.

It works fine.

But as I found out, this code is removing new lines from <pre><code>...</code></pre>:

This is an example-output using the code above:

<pre><code>&lt;div class=&quot;uk-form-row&quot;&gt;     &lt;label class=&quot;uk-form-label&quot;&gt;{{ &#39;Pages&#39; | trans }}&lt;/label&gt;     &lt;div class=&quot;uk-form-controls uk-form-controls-text&quot;&gt;         &lt;input-tree :active.sync=&quot;package.config.nodes&quot;&gt;&lt;/input-tree&gt;     &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; </code></pre>

This is an example-output without using the code above:

<pre><code>&lt;div class=&quot;uk-form-row&quot;&gt;
    &lt;label class=&quot;uk-form-label&quot;&gt;{{ &#39;Pages&#39; | trans }}&lt;/label&gt;
    &lt;div class=&quot;uk-form-controls uk-form-controls-text&quot;&gt;
        &lt;input-tree :active.sync=&quot;package.config.nodes&quot;&gt;&lt;/input-tree&gt;
    &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
</code></pre>

file_get_html returns false for this URL: https://tripadvisor.ca/Restaurant_Review-g255344-d724335-Reviews-Dynasty_Chinese_Restaurant-Launceston_Tasmania.html which can be loaded in the browser, but this URL works fine: 'https://tripadvisor.ca'

I'm trying to fetch some data from external website where I need many requests. Then the file_get_contents() may through some authorization error. What's your thought about this?

Why not use the latest version?

I had trouble with the current version because mb_detect_encoding isn't available on all systems. This is fixed in version 1.8.1

I have the following warnings when using this library

Warning: file_get_contents(): stream does not support seeking in vendor/sunra/php-simple-html-dom-parser/Src/Sunra/PhpSimple/simplehtmldom_1_5/simple_html_dom.php on line 81

Warning: file_get_contents(): Failed to seek to position -1 in the stream in vendor/sunra/php-simple-html-dom-parser/Src/Sunra/PhpSimple/simplehtmldom_1_5/simple_html_dom.php on line 81

Can someone gives help?

I found a problem with :first-child psedo-class selector.

For this HTML

<div>
    <a href="javascript:void(0)">&times;</a>
    <div class="links">
        <ul>
            <li>
                <a href="https://github.com/">link 1</a>
                <span>(info)</span>
            </li>
            <li>
                <a href="https://github.com/">link 2</a>
                <span>(info)</span>
            </li>
        </ul>
    </div>
</div>

Selector .links > ul > li:first-child > a matches 0 elements, selector .links > ul > li > a matches two elements.
Expected behavior is that selector .links > ul > li:first-child > a matches this element:

<li>
    <a href="https://github.com/">link 1</a>
    <span>(info)</span>
</li>

$dom = HtmlDomParser::str_get_html('

What is the cause of this mistake?

If you try to get all the anchors like this, then by default one (the last) element is returned:
$anchors = $soup->getElementsByTagName('a');
The following does give me all the elements:
$anchors = $soup->getElementsByTagName('a', null);

The idx value defaults to -1. Is this on purpose?

Hi,

I installed the library using composer so now I have a folder under "vendor/sunra/php-simple-html-dom-parser/....".
I am pasting my code controller code here (using CodeIgnitrer), and for some reason the library doesn't load properly.
I keep getting the error: "Call to undefined function file_get_html()" when running create_main_array() function.
Is there something that I'm not getting right?
I did include the autoload.php file, like any other library installed with composer and this worked till now.
did the same with use Sunra\PhpSimple\HtmlDomParser;.

<?php 

**require FCPATH. 'vendor/autoload.php';
use Sunra\PhpSimple\HtmlDomParser;**
