Menu
I’m in the process of working with my affiliate to set up a page that scapes his “new items” page and displays them on my site.
I understand how to scrape the contents of that page, but I’m unsure of how to filter the scraped html to only display certain items from the page.
Also, his items page has form fields for each item to purchase. I want to strip away those and only display the title, price and picture.
I’m a bit rusty on php and any help is appreciated.
Here is the content I’m scraping…
