tricky: parse entire webpage into an array?

hiya,

i have an old webpage here, 20+ pages full of tables with products, description and prices.
i have to write this values into a database for a redesign of this site. can anyone think of a way to parse a whole page into an array? it would be much easier to look for the table inside an array insteaf of messing arround with strlen() and str_pos() to read this table.
the array should look like this so that i can access each section of the page:

$site = array("html_0"=>array("body_0"=>array("h1_0"=>"heading 1 here",
                                              "p_0"=>"first paragraph",
                                              "p_1"=>"second paragraph",
                                              "table_0"=>array("tr_0"=>array("td_0"=>"item name",
                                                                             "td_1"=>"description",
                                                                             "td_2"=>"price",)
                                                               )
                                              ),
                                
                                )
                                
                );
echo "<pre>";
print_r($site);
echo "</pre>";

anyone who can help?

 

search google for preg_match_all
very useful function

the main problem here is that my regex-skills suck...

 

Go with XSLT. PHP has a parser to put in XML, but you may need to run Tidy first.
