Im using Dom parser to extract content from html page within body tag something like:

$html = file_get_contents('index.php');

libxml_use_internal_errors(true);
$dom = new DOMDocument();
$dom->loadHTML($html);
$body = "";
foreach($dom->getElementsByTagName("body")->item(0)->childNodes as $child) {
    $body .= $dom->saveHTML($child);
}
echo $body;

but now I need to put modified $body variable back into index.php file and replace content within tag. Can I do that with file_put_contents()

Use [DOMDocument::saveHTMLFile](http://php.net/manual/de/domdocument.savehtmlfile.php). – syck Jun 09 '16 at 15:06
@syck that will not work. I dont want to replace whole file just body content. – Alko Jun 09 '16 at 15:30
And what happens to the rest of the file? – syck Jun 09 '16 at 16:54
As for file_put_contents(), what is unclear? Did you try it? If not, why not? – syck Jun 09 '16 at 16:56
the rest of the file will remain the same, I just need to replace content within tags – Alko Jun 09 '16 at 17:01
