innerHTML in xPath?

Question

Is there a way of retrieving HTML (and JavaScript) contained in a div element?

Answer 1

This will give you the outerHTML rather than the innerHTML, but you can easily strip the extra DIV tags at both ends.

Working example:

$xpath = new DOMXPath( @DOMDocument::loadHTML($the_html_code) ) ;
$domElement = $xpath->evaluate("//div[@id='ID_of_the_div']")->item(0) ;
$outerHTML = $domElement->ownerDocument->saveXML($domElement) ;
