?>

can i do it through $query->item()->
i tried has_attributes and getElementsByTagNameNS and getElementById
but i failed ::

Replace:

$image = $query->item($x)->getELementsByTagName('img')->item(0)->getAttribute('src');

…with:

$td = $query->item($x); // grab the td element
$img = $xpath->query('./img',$td)->item(0); // grab the first direct img child element
$image = $img->getAttribute('src'); // grab the source of the image

In other words, use the XPath object again to query, but now for ./img, relative to the context node you provide as the second argument to query(). The context node being one of the elements (td) of the earlier result.
