parse php for strings to translate

Question

I have many php files full of html markup. I would like to extract all the strings (html node content and attribute values), to generate a text document to review then send for translation.

I'm wondering, is there a reliable way (a tool or a script perhaps) that would do that automatically?

Example code i have:

<div class="row">
    <div class="medium-11 columns medium-centered">
        <p style="font-weight:bold;">Bienvenue sur votre compte, vous permettant
            de répondre aux offres d'emploi. Tenez à jour vos données
            personnelles et vos documents officiels tels que CV, diplôme ou
            permis de conduire, et retrouvez l'historique des offres auxquelles
            vous aviez postulé.</p>
    </div>
</div>
<dl class="tabs" data-tab="">
    <dd class="active">
        <a href="#profile"><i class="fi-torso"></i> Votre profil</a>
    </dd>
    <dd>
        <a href="#formation"><i class="fi-bookmark"></i> Formation</a>
    </dd>
    <dd>
        <a href="#experience"><i class="fi-shuffle"></i> Expérience</a>
    </dd>
    <dd>
        <a href="#documents"><i class="fi-paperclip"></i> Documents</a>
    </dd>
    <dd>
        <a href="#history"><i class="fi-foundation"></i> Historique</a>
    </dd>
</dl>
<input type="hidden" name="user_id" value="USERID">
<input type="radio" name="sexe" value="2" id="Monsieur" title="veuillez indiquer votre genre">

What i would like to extract:

To remove all the tags in the HTML, you can use strip_tags():

$text_only = strip_tags($html_codes);

For document generation part, it depends what kind of document you want to generate.

that would not catch the html attribute values. – pixeline Dec 06 '13 at 06:51
maybe you should give an example of output content. – Raptor Dec 06 '13 at 06:53
`strip_tags()` will work for you, but you need extra transform to change line ( and escape characters ). – Raptor Dec 06 '13 at 08:22
but in your output example, it does not show any html attributes. – Raptor Dec 06 '13 at 08:37
I see. Finally noticed that. For the radio button, you may have to handle it by replace string / regex before you use `strip_tags()` – Raptor Dec 06 '13 at 08:51
