I have this tag in PHP file, and I need to remove it when user is in Main Page (mainpage.com example).

I don't need to hide it with CSS or JS, just remove from DOM.

I have searched the web, but can't find nothing (maybe it's my mistake) (also I'm a frontend Angularjs developer)

So how can I do it with PHP?

<td class="category" width="20">
     <a>
          ...
     </a>
</td>

    You mean that this code is in a file that is include in multiple pages, and you want to exclude some code from that file for a single page? `if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] != '/') { ... }` should do? – jcaron May 19 '17 at 00:10
  • @jcaron Yes , this code is include in every pages of website , i need to remove it only from main page –  May 19 '17 at 00:12

First you need to make an if else conditional for current url. To get current url in PHP you can read this question Get the full URL in PHP

if ($url === 'http://mainpage.com/') {
//function here 
enter code here
} else {
// do nothing 
}

To remove the content of certain element you can use preg_replace function. I tested this code bellow and it's worked.

$html = '<div id="somediv">Some div</div>
    <td class="category" width="20">
    <a> ...  </a> </td>

    <td class="anothercategory" width="20">
    <a>
    Not removed
    </a>
    </td><
    <div class="someclas"> Another Part</div>';

echo  preg_replace('/<td class="category"[^>]*>([\s\S]*?)<\/td[^>]*>/', ' Removed ', $html);

Please combine that two code based on your case. Hope it's help

Normally will control by PHP 'IF' condition, but need depend how your website detect current page is main page.

If you home page URL look like:

  • mainpage.com
  • mainpage.com/index.php

I then the example below should help you up :)

<?php if(!(strtok($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], '?') == '/' || strtok($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], '?') == '/index.php')):?>
<td class="category" width="20">
     <a>
          ...
     </a>
</td>
<?php endif; ?>
