Answer 1

The manual is pretty clear, anyway you could achieve with this code:

Given the tag <title>IANA &mdash; Example domains</title> <title>IANA &mdash; Example domains</title> you can use

include 'simple_html_dom.php';

$url = 'http://www.example.com';

$html = new simple_html_dom();

$html->load_file($url);
$title = $html->find('title',0);
echo $title->plaintext;

//output : IANA — Example domains

Plaintext will give you the content stripped of all html tags, so just...plain text. If you want the innerHtml you can use $title->innertext; instead (in this case it doesn't make any difference, but will if you have html tags within the tag you're going to fetch)
