Re: Re: How do I extract link text from anchor tag as well as the URL from the "href" attribute

Hello, You might also want to try using the Raxan framework: require_once 'raxan/pdi/gateway.php'; $page = new RichWebPage('page.html'); echo $page['a']->text(); // this will get the text betwen the a tag   To get the image element use: $elm = $page['a img']->node(0); You can download Raxan here: http://raxanpdi.com/downloads.html __ Raymond Irving --- On Sat, 8/22/09, Manuel Lemos <mlemos@acm.org> wrote: From: Manuel Lemos <mlemos@acm.org> Subject: [PHP] Re: How do I extract link text from anchor tag as well as the URL from the "href" attribute To: "chrysanhy" <phplists@hyphusonline.com> Cc: php-general@lists.php.net Date: Saturday, August 22, 2009, 1:07 AM Hello, on 08/16/2009 04:33 AM chrysanhy said the following: > I have the following code to extract the URLs from the anchor tags of an > HTML page: > > $html = new DOMDocument(); > $htmlpage->loadHtmlFile($location); > $xpath = new DOMXPath($htmlpage); > $links = $xpath->query( '//a' ); > foreach ($links as $link) > { $int_url_list[$i++] = $link->getAttribute( 'href' ) .
