parsing - Parse HTML adding ID to all <input>s using NAME in PHP -

i'm trying take html document in php (that have no command over) , ensuring each input has id. if there's no id need add together 1 using whatever name has been set.

for example:

input type="text" name="something" value="something else"

i need parse to:

input type="text" name="something" id="something" value="something else"

i must entire document.

i have search solution have come empty handed.

ok misunderstood! reply number 2 here:

$dom = new domdocument; $dom->load('yourdoc.html');// load document $inputs = $dom->getelementsbytagname("input"); //get inputs for($i=0; $i<$inputs->length; $i++){ // every input found $thisname = $inputs->item($i)->getattribute("name"); // set name in variable $inputs->item($i)->setattribute("id",$thisname); // set id same } $dom->save('yourdoc.html'); //save document

this has closer want, surely?

no parsers, simple dom work.
