How to extract website title using PHP?

Answer 1

To create manupulate using HTML, you can use the Document Object Model (this is the recommended way).

If you are looking for a dirty quick fix, this is a pretty simple expression:

$html = file_get_contents('http://example.com'); $matches = preg_match("/<title>([^<]*)<\/title>/im"); echo $matches[1]; 

Answer 2

You can get the domain name via $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] .

Answer 3

Take the document using curl , run it through the parser and then use any API that the parser provides to get the title element ( //title will execute if XPath is supported).
