  • Iterate over the elements and output the content as XML.. – chris85 Dec 26 '16 at 21:39
  • Just put your HTML as String into a DOMDocument Object. [Topic has been discussed here](http://stackoverflow.com/a/4881456/5482243) – Ben Smith Dec 26 '16 at 21:41
  • [tagsoup](https://sourceforge.net/projects/tagsoup/) is a SAX parser for HTML that may be useful here.

It would be easier to work with HTML in this case, with DOMDocument();
http://php.net/manual/en/domdocument.loadhtml.php 

$html = file_get_html('http://example.com'); 
$doc = new DOMDocument();
$doc->loadHTML($html);

  • `$xml=simplexml_load_string($doc) or die("Errooooooor"); print_r($xml);` - no, you cannot do this! In your case $doc is an object and simplexml_load_string() take a well-formed XML string as parameter. If you want parse your HTML, you can do like this [http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4881255/generating-xml-from-html-list-using-php](example) – Alex K. Dec 27 '16 at 19:35
