I'm using Goutte to crawl an URL with PHP.
I want to save a list <ul>...</ul>
just after this tag :
<p><strong>Maladies fréquentes :</strong></p>
The DOM looks like this structure :
<p>....</p>
<p>....</p>
<p>....</p>
<p>....</p>
...
<h2>...</h2>
...
<ul>...</ul>
...
<p><strong>Maladies fréquentes :</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Text I need</li>
<li>Text I need</li>
</ul>
...
<p></p>
<p></p>
...
Actually, I save to my DB using :first-of-type
$crawler->filter('.desc ul:first-of-type li')->each(function ($node) use (&$out) {
$li = array();
if ($node->count() > 0) {
$li[] = str_replace('"', "'", trim($node->filter('li')->text()));
}
// Insert into DV
}
When the content contains 2 or 3 <ul>...</ul>
It always save wrong li because all ul are selected.
How can I select only the <ul>
after <p><strong>Maladies fréquentes :</strong></p>
?
Thanks !
Don't know much about Goutte, but I believe you can load the crawler object into DomDocument and then parse it with xpath. Something like:
$doc = new DOMDocument();
$doc->loadHTML($crawler);
#or possibly: $doc->loadHTML((string)$crawler);
$xpath = new DOMXPath($doc);
$targets = $xpath->query('//p[strong]/following-sibling::ul[1]//li');
#or possibly: $targets = $xpath->query('//p[contains(strong,"Maladies")]/following-sibling::ul[1]//li');
foreach ($targets as $source) {
echo($source->nodeValue."\r\n");
};
The output should be
Text I need
Text I need
