Parse an html file

Hi, I'd like to read an html file from a site and take out some information, what is the best way to do that? To get the single information I was thinking to read inside strings and get every single word I need, hoping that tags are closed in the right way..or maybe I should look for something like a xml parser that creates object from the html file?

thanks

 

I hope this code will help you

 

Thanks! I will try both tonight.

 

$lines = file(strip_tags('http://www.example.com/'));
