I'm using PHP Simple HTML DOM Parser
library in my project, but I can't figure out how to make a method working.
First I convert a string into a DOM object:
$html = str_get_html($rarr[$i]);
the $rarr
variable is an array of html string elements. I want to remove their class
and title
attributes, so I use the following code:
$html = $html->removeAttribute('class');
$html = $html->removeAttribute('title');
but I get the following error:
Fatal error: Call to undefined method simple_html_dom::removeAttribute() in /scripts/defios.php on line 198
According to Documentation, the str_get_html()
Creates a DOM object from a string. and I think the removeAttribute()
method is not a DOM method but an Element method and that's why I get the error. So I need to convert somehow the DOM to Element. I think the find()
method would do the job, but the problem is that I can't use it because the html elements in the array are randomly (some are divs, spans and they don't have a common class or id), so the method doesn't really help me. More the DOM itself is the element so I do not want to select something inside the DOM but to convert the entire DOM to an Element.
All I need to do is to remove that class and title, so any help would be appreciated.
