Re: DOM Question. No pun intended.

Satyam, I don't see any "innerHTML" or "outerHTML" in relation to PHP DOM. I'm familiar with them from a Javascript standpoint, but no references when it comes to PHP DOM. Regards, Mike Quoting Satyam <Satyam@satyam.com.ar>:

Try the properties innerHTML or outerHTML, the later will include the enclosing tag.

No pun intended.

Hi All, I'm having HTML DOM troubles. Is there any way to output the *EXACT* code contained in a node (child nodes and all)? For instance, I perform a $doc->loadHTML($file) and all is well. I then search through the document for specific NODEs with getElementsByTagName(). However, when I go to output the data from that node (say a specific DIV) I simply get the text without formatting and the like. Basically, I want the retrieved NODE to echo exactly what is contained. If the div looks like the following: <div id="name"> <table> stuff </table> </div> . . .I want it to give me exactly that when I do a NODE->textContent or NODE->nodeValue. I don't want just the text, I want all tags contained, etc. It would be nice to have DOMNode->saveHTML() similar to the DOMDocument->saveHTML(). FYI, I'm using the technique to "screen scrape" portions of other pages from my site and compile items for a quick fix. Fortunately all my DIVs have IDs and I can loop through and find them by that attribute's value. I just can't output their EXACT data once I have them. :-\ Thanks!
