I have an HTML table that I would like to parse in PHP to store into a MySQL Database. The HTML looks like this:
DATE LOCATION NAME
I would like to create a PHP function that returns in an array, the fields in capital letters. Does anyone know any php libraries that can do this, or should I be using a different language, as this may be complex. I don't know exactly how to do this with many tables on the page, but I am trying to parse the VEX events on RobotEvents. The table that I want to parse starts at line 465.
Answer
As you're prepared to look beyond PHP, Nokogiri (Ruby) and Beautiful Soup (Python) are well-established libraries that parse HTML very well.
That doesn't imply that there are no suitable PHP libraries.
