How to extract title and meta description using PHP Simple HTML DOM Parser?

How can I extract a page's title and meta description using the PHP Simple HTML DOM Parser?

I just need the title of the page and the keywords in plain text.

Solution

  • I just took a look at the HTML DOM Parser, try:

    $html = new simple_html_dom();
$html->load_file('xxx'); //put url or filename in place of xxx
$title = $html->find('title');
echo $title->plaintext;

$descr = $html->find('meta[description]');
echo $descr->plaintext;
