That was going to be along the lines of my solution if I didn't get a response :) I was going to use microdom (have had some trouble with html tidy in the past) and maybe some xpath, xsl or similar to sort out what is what. Am a little concerned about performance, if I'm truncating 50 stories per page then it may start hurting my server without caching.
