parsing some arabic websites return only ������� did anyone work on fixing such charactersets not supporting by this library? if no then i can spend few hours on fixing this issue but require little help from author of this library to look into the code specifically handling this charactersets.

    Closing because it works with the latest version. Please don't hesitate to open a new ticket if this is still an issue for you.

    The original link from above doesn't work for me, so I used following test script to load arabic characters:

    <?php

require_once 'simple_html_dom.php';

$html = file_get_html('http://www.bbc.com/arabic');

echo $html->find('p', 0) . PHP_EOL;

// Returns
// <p class="buzzard__summary">رئيس الحكومة الليبية المدعومة من الأمم المتحدة يدين &quot;صمت&quot; حلفائه الدوليين أمام زحف قوات خليفة حفتر المناوئة نحو العاصمة طرابلس.</p>

    That said, the contents are UTF-8 encoded. It might not work for different character sets. Again, don't hesitate to open a new ticket if this is still an issue.
