SimpleHTMLDOM-在div中排除元素

Question

I'm using SimpleHTMLDOM and trying to get some content from a site. And I must say that im very happy with using SimpleHTMLDOM, but I can't find anything on my problem and how to solve it.

The goes like this: I'm trying to extract the string from a follow element: foo.

This is the markup for element foo on the site:

<div class="foo"> 
   Lorem Ipsum 
   <div class="bar"></div>
</div>

And the php code i'm using is like this:

foreach($html->find('.foo ') as $m)
        $foo = $m->innertext;

This will output:

Lorem Ipsum <div class="bar"></div>

So my question is how to exclude the div/element inside the class foo?

Thanks in advance!

I think you can find the first text node with something similar to the following...

foreach($html->find('.foo') as $foo)
    echo $foo->find('text', 0);
