I'm new to both HTML & PHP. I'm attempting to remove multiple DOM elements from a parsed HTML string.
For example:
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>I'd like to find and remove this text</td>
<td>& possibly this too</td>
<td>can you help?</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
Thanks in advance!
DOMDocument
is much better for dealing with DOM manipulation ( SimpleXML
is good for just parsing):
$dom = new DOMDocument;
$dom->loadHTML($html);
$xpath = new DOMXPath($dom);
$textNodes = $xpath->query('//text()');
foreach ($textNodes as $node) {
$node->parentNode->removeChild($node);
}
Very simply if I were to remove lots of things from a string in PHP I would create an array of the parts to remove, loop through them and remove them one at a time from the big string.
Like
$html = "Loads of html blah blah blah blah......";
$array = array(
"Remove me",
"and me",
"remove me too"
);
foreach($array as $string){
str_replace($string, '', $html);
}
For more information on str_replace see http://php.net/manual/en/function.str-replace.php
