Extracting HTML Data with Curl / PHP

I have the following code in PHP

$ch = curl_init("http://blog.com");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
$output = curl_exec($ch);      
curl_close($ch);
echo $output;

I am trying to import the block of code in between <div id="content"> and </div> I would like to know the best way of extracting this code.

  1. Using curl, the $output will be an String, so create a DOM using it:

    $html = str_get_html($content);

    Than, get the content:

    $content = $html->find('#content');
