Parse img from RSS-feed using PHP SIMPLE HTML DOM Parser - html

Question

I am trying to parse this site (to get the img-link): http://statigr.am/feed/parishilton
This is my code:
include 'parse/simple_html_dom.php';
// Create DOM from URL or file
$html = file_get_html('http://statigr.am/feed/parishilton/');
// Find all images
foreach($html->find('img') as $element)
{
echo $element->src . '<br>';
}
The script doesn't return anything! Why is that ? I want the img link.

Answer 1

It's because all images are inside CDATA section and parser ignores it, so the solution is
$html = file_get_html('http://statigr.am/feed/parishilton/');
$html = str_replace("<![CDATA[","",$html); // clean-up
$html = str_replace("]]>","",$html); // clean-up
$html = str_get_html($html); // re-construct the dom object
// Loop
foreach($html->find('item description img') as $el)
{
echo $el->src . "<br />";
}
Replace all CDATA from the returned content and then use str_get_html to create DOM object from that string and loop through the images. (Tested and works).
