Question

I am trying to display some content from a webpage using curl and simple_html_DOM whenever i echo the content it is just an array how to i get it to actually show the html content?

<?php
echo ("hello");

include 'simple_html_dom.php';

$curl = curl_init();
curl_setopt ($curl, CURLOPT_URL, "http://catalog.hastingsfilter.com/startautoapps.html");
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1); 
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, "Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.01; Windows NT 5.0)");
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_AUTOREFERER, 1);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_REFERER, "http://catalog.hastingsfilter.com/startautoapps.html");

$result = curl_exec ($curl);
curl_close ($curl);
//write contents of $result to file
$File = "page.txt";
$fh = fopen($File, 'w') or die("can't open file");
fwrite($fh, $result);
fclose($fh);
//turn file into dom object
$page = file_get_html("page.txt");
$div = $page->find('div[id=columnright]');
echo $div;

?>

thanks

Answer 1

it seems that the inner < iframe> is messing the query.
Im not sure why simple html dom behave like that..
why not changing the query into:

$div = $page->find("iframe[name='main2']");
echo $div[0]->innertext;

EDITED:

you can change the .src attribute like this:

$page = file_get_html("page.txt");
...
$page->find("iframe[name='main2']",0)->src = "foo";
$thehtml = $page->save();

by the way, i called directly the < iframe> source and also got
a no-server found..
