PHP Web Scraper - Easily Grab HTML From Websites (Miscellaneous)

PHP Web Scraper helps you generate codes to automatically get HTML from a web page on the internet and display it on your website. For example, say you want to automatically get the latest Tennis rankings from cbssports.com, all you need to do is give the URL of that page and a CSS selector to the app and then insert the generated code into the source code of your page, so whenever someone visits your page they get the latest Tennis rankings directly from cbssports.com.

Note: This plugin assumes that you have a basic knowledge of HTML and CSS.

Limitations

PHP Web Scraper cannot scrap certain types of content:

Videos – YouTube, Dailymotion and most other video sharing websites.

Flash Based Content – The contents of flash files (the flash file itself can be retrieved).

Ajax & JavaScript Generated HTML – Content that is generated using AJAX, Angular.js or similar techniques cannot be scrapped. You can check if a page uses these techniques simply by disabling JavaScript in your browser. If you can still see the content then you can scrap that page.

Dynamically Generated HTML – Content which is dynamically generated based on certain criteria like geographic location of the user, or capabilities of the user’s device, or content that is visible only to logged in users.
