Answer 1

The right code to get a div with class is:

$ret = $html->find('div.foo');
//OR
$ret = $html->find('div[class=foo]');

Basically you can get elements as you were using a CSS selector.

The to find the following elements: DIV -> class(product-inner clearfix) -> class(price) the following XPath can be used:

        $itemPrice = $element->find('.price',0)->plaintext;
        echo $itemPrice;
    }
