PHP Warning 'yii\base\ErrorException' with message 'preg_match(): Compilation failed: invalid range in character class at offset 4'

I got the same error

[wotupset]

php 7.3 has some bugs in preg_* function

[ArniPL]

@wotupset Not bugs. PHP 7.3 has updated its regular expression engine to PCRE2, which brings some breaking changes.

I think the dash in referenced expression needs to be escaped.

There's even a PR opened two months ago that fixes this: #63 but it's left unmerged. This package might be abandoned.

7.3 compatible version:
https://github.com/Kub-AT/php-simple-html-dom-parser

Author of original PHP Simple HTML DOM Parser (sourceforge hosted) did an update on 2018-12-10 (after 6 year ;)) version 1.7 is compatible with PHP 7.3
https://sourceforge.net/projects/simplehtmldom/files/simplehtmldom/1.7/

[luigitek]

careful with 1.8.1 which is the version used by https://github.com/Kub-AT/php-simple-html-dom-parser

This version doesn't work as expected for example:

$dom->find('div[class=name]', 0);

The above fails if the div has more than 1 class. I'm currently working with version 1.7.1 which doesn't have this issue.

It would be nice if you reported a bug here https://sourceforge.net/p/simplehtmldom/bugs/

Thanks m8, I've opened an bug issue:

I'll include more details to it as soon as I get a chance 👍

@Kub-AT

it looks like you have mistaken the library, there is no loadFromUrl in simplehtmldom
but is in https://github.com/paquettg/php-html-parser

[ebuildy]

this should be reported in the composer.yml file ! to avoid installation under >= php7.3 (php 7.4 is RC1 now)

@vistart, Get the last version of simplehtmldom from "https://sourceforge.net/projects/simplehtmldom/files/simplehtmldom/1.9.1/" site. It will work.

Thanks this works like charm +1

How can we install the 1.7 version of the original parser? I'm using laravel and the listed package doesn't contain a composer.json file

[marianoarga]

@serg1uu I found an alternative, go for https://github.com/simplehtmldom/simplehtmldom
