Cut desired HTML part from DOM object

Question

I am trying to get one specific css class from my DOM object. I use simplehtmldom library.

1) The library

simplehtmldom.sourceforge.net

2) Because my localhost doesnt support fopen for some reason, I use the CURL library to get the HTML, source:

http://simplehtmldom.sourceforge.net/manual_faq.htm

3) Now, my script looks like this. It gives me source of HTML from the website which I desire.

<?php
    $curl = curl_init();
    curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_URL, "http://hokejbal.cz/1-liga/tabulky/");
    curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
    $result = curl_exec($curl);
    curl_close($curl);
    print $result;

    str_get_dom;
    $ret = $html->find('.standings tablesort tablesorter tablesorter-default');
?>

4) Now, I want to get just a part of the website. Exactly this table:

<table class="standings tablesort tablesorter tablesorter-default">

I found it in Google Chrome webmaster tools

Unfortunately, when I run the script, I get whole HTML page, not just the desired part. What am I doing wrong?

Answer 1

The selector would be '.standings.tablesort.tablesorter.tablesorter-default'

Update: Try the below code.

<?php
    $html = file_get_html('http://hokejbal.cz/1-liga/tabulky/');  
    $ret = $html->find('table.standings', 0);
    print $ret;
?>
