Said it before, but low-tech solution is to use program "lynx" with the -dump argument and capture the output back to PHP. I'm assuming you are on Linux or OSX I guess as I've not heard of using lynx on windows..... There are loads of command line options to control the way lynx displays the output so you have a very fine grain of control here.
