Scraping and divs - html

Question

I'm new to PHP and am trying to scrape data from a website I'm using regular expressions, but locating content rental and details in the div is a problem here is my code. Could someone help me out?
<?php
header('content-type: text/plain');
$contents= file_get_contents('http://www.hassconsult.co.ke/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=22&Itemid=29');
$contents = preg_replace('/\s(1,)/','',$contents);
$contents = preg_replace('/ /','',$contents);
//print $contents."\n";
$records = preg_split('/<span class="style8"/',$contents);
for ($ix=1; $ix < count($records); $ix++){
$tmp = $records[$ix];
preg_match('/href="(.*?)"/',$tmp, $match_url);
preg_match('/>(.*?)<\/span>/',$tmp,$match_name);
preg_match('/<div[^>]+class ?= ?"style10"[^>]*>(\s*(<div.*(?2).*<\/div>\s*)*)<\/div>/Us',$tmp,$match_rental);//error is here
print_r($match_url);
print_r($match_name);
print_r($match_rental);
print $tmp."\n";
exit ();
}
//print count($records)."\n";
//print_r($records);
//if ($contents===false)
//print 'FALSE';
//print_r(htmlentities($contents));
?>
Here is a sample of the content
>HILLVIEW CROSSROADS4 BED HOUSE</span></div></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="57%" style="padding-left:20px;"><div align="left" class="style10" style="color:#007AC7;">

Answer 1

That website doesn't have good css selectors but it's still not to hard to get it with xpath:
$dom = new DOMDocument();
#$dom->loadHTMLFile('http://www.hassconsult.co.ke/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=22&Itemid=29');
$xpath = new DOMXPath($dom);
foreach($xpath->query("//div[#id='ad']/table") as $table) {
// title
echo $xpath->query(".//span[#class='style8']", $table)->item(0)->nodeValue . "\n";
// price
echo $xpath->query(".//div[#class='style10']/div", $table)->item(0)->nodeValue . "\n";
// description
echo $xpath->query(".//div[#align='justify']", $table)->item(0)->nodeValue . "\n";
}
