See here: http://wiki.flux-cms.org/display/BLOG/GetElementById+Pitfalls Probably easiest to use XPath. Otherwise you have to slightly modify your HTML... e.g. replace your getElementById with: $xp = new DomXPath($oDOMDocument); $oCustomNode = $xp->query("//*[@id = 'custom']")->item(0); > Also, as an aside, one thing that I found odd is that count( $aLayoutNodes ) > shows as 1 even though more are found. Huh? That's because $aLayoutNodes is not an array. It is a DOMNodeList object. That means it implements the Iterator interface which means it works with foreach, but not with e.g. count(). Use $aLayoutNodes->length to see how many nodes there are in the list (i.e. use that as a direct replacement for count($aLayoutNodes)) (also if the "a" prefix is meant to identify the var as an array I'd probably change it to the "o" prefix you seem to use for objects...)
