PHP Simple HTML DOM Parser display none

Question

i'm trying to figure out how to set elements invisible using the parser. here's what i tried which didn't work unfortunately:

$button->style = "display:none";

any ideas? thanks

<button> is not a valid PHP type. What PHP type is $button? — hakre

it comes from the parser :) like this: $button = $dom->find("button#save]",0); — Fuxi

I don't know which parser you're using, but if you want to hide some HTML element, you need to set the style attribute to display:none.

So access the style attribute of that button and set it / extend it with display:none.

According to the reference given at http://simplehtmldom.sourceforge.net/ (if that is the component you're using), this should do it:

$dom->find("button[id=save]",0)->style = 'display:none';
