Scraping using php - preg_match_all

If you were willing to or have already installed phpQuery, you can use that.

phpQuery::newDocumentFileHTML('htmlpage.html');
echo pq('td:eq(6)')->text();

PHP can interact with the DOM just like JavaScript can. This is vastly superior to parsing the markup, as most people will tell you is the wrong approach anyway:

Loading from an HTML File

// Start by creating a new document
$doc = new DOMDocument();
// I've loaded the table into an external file, and am loading it into the $doc
$doc->loadHTMLFile( 'htmlpage.html' );
// Since you have six table cells, I'm calling up all of them
$cells = $doc->getElementsByTagName("td");
// I'm grabbing the sixth cell's textContent property
echo $cells->item(5)->textContent;

This code will output "146.30 MB" to the screen.

Loading from a String

If you have the HTML stored within a string, you can load that into your document as well. We'll change the method used to load the file, into the method used to load from a string:

$str = "<table><tr><td>Foo</td></tr>...</table>";
$doc->loadHTML( $str );

We would then proceed with the same code as above to select the cells, and show their textContent in the output.
