PHP - Call to a member function find() on a non-object

Question

So this error is killing me, heres the code:

$html = file_get_html(\'vids.html\');

foreach($html->find(\'a\') as $element) {

        echo $element->name
         


        

Answer 1

Did you include the simple_html_dom.php file first?

include_once('/simple_html_dom.php');

And is your vids.html in the same directory you are calling from?

Answer 2

I think you should var_dump($element) inside the loop and see if it has the 'name' property set. YOu could modify your condition and add isset() in the loop,

   foreach($html->find('a') as $element) {
     if(isset($element->name)){
        echo $element->name;
     }
  }
