In php how would I grab all javascript from a page given it's url? Is there a good regular expression to get the src of all javascript script tags or the script inside of them?

A:
You can use PHP Simple HTML DOM to traverse the DOM for <script> tags. You can grab inline scripts directly in a string and get the src attribute for externally linked scripts and download them directly with curl or something. It would require some coding, I don't know if there is a 'magic' script that would do that automatically for you.

Don't forget `javascript:` URIs and intrinsic event handler attributes (such as `onclick`).

would php simple html dom work even if the site doesn't have a valid dom structure, (like most sites)?

@QuinnBaetz: I guess it would in most cases. You need to try it to be certain, but where I've used it I didn't ran into any issues. It's very easy to use also.

A:
This should place the values of all src attributes contained in script tags into an array in the variable $matches. Check out the documentation for the format of the the array, as there is another parameter that will allow you to modify it.
preg_match_all('/<script[^>]*src=[\'"]([^\'"])+[\'"]/', $string, $matches);

I would suggest htmlSQL.

With that you can get the code with tags as well as inline javascript for onclick like events also.
