need a bit of assistance.

I have a Imdb grabber that grabs certain details from the site for example.

This code 

$ps = $dom->getElementsByTagName('p');
for($i=0;$i<$ps->length;$i++){
$itemprop = $ps->item($i)->getAttribute("itemprop");
if ($itemprop=="description"){
$tmp = explode("See full summary",$ps->item($i)->textContent);
$tmp = explode("See full synopsis",$tmp[0]);
$res['summary'] = trim($tmp[0]);
break;
}
}

Grabs the description from imdb.com from this

<p itemprop="description"> description would be here </p>

So like the description how could i get the release date from this

<span class="nobr">
<a href="/title/tt2404311/releaseinfo?ref_=tt_ov_inf " title="See all release dates"> 13 September 2013<meta itemprop="datePublished" content="2013-09-13">(USA)
</a>
</span>

Could some help me out please.

Use regular expressions and preg_match to do your work :)
