I want to get entire body tag content using DOM Document.

I used following code:

$dom = new domDocument;

/*** load the html into the object ***/
$dom->loadHTML($html);

/*** the table by its tag name ***/
$tables = $dom->getElementsByTagName('body')->item(0)->nodeValue;

This gives me TExt. I want entire body content.

    You can pass the body DOMElement to either DOMDocument::saveHTML() or DOMDocument::saveHTMLFile(), e.g.

    <?php
$doc = new DOMDocument;
$doc->loadhtmlfile('http://stackoverflow.com');

$body = $doc->getElementsByTagName('body');
if ( $body && 0<$body->length ) {
    $body = $body->item(0);
    echo $doc->savehtml($body);
}

    prints

    Warning: DOMDocument::loadHTMLFile(): Unexpected end tag : p in http://stackoverflow.com, line: 2843 [...]
<body class="home-page">
