Simple dom php parse get custom data attribute value

Question

HTML:

<div class="something" data-a="abc">ddsf</d>

PHP:

foreach ($dom->find('.something[data-rel]') as $this) {
    var_dump($this->attr());
}

I tried this but error. Couldn't find any info on its documentation. I want to get the data-a's value which is abc.

Your code makes no sense at all, you probably want to do this with javascript. — Jelle Keizer

It looks like this:

$dom->find('div[data-a]',0)->{'data-a'}

how bout $dom->find('div[data-a]')->{'data-a'} ? the zero is optional right? because assume I can do like this $dom->find('.panel [data-a]')->{'data-a'}

No, the 0 means the first match. Without the 0 you get an array.

Use xpath

Should be something like this:

foreach ($dom->xpath('/div[@data-a]') as $item) {
    ...
}

are you sure? this is like getting the right element, is this the way u get the value the custom attr?

No, this way you find and loop through all 'div' elements that have "data-a" attribute. To get the value of this attribute you just need to access $item->attributes()->{'data-a'}
