Xpath match text in html table but ignore script

I am trying to match text, and output the entire row including self in xpath.

The issue I am having is the self node also contains javascript in the html table and it is outputing the script as well.

I have tried the following:

Working but contains javascript from the self node:

$bo_row = $bo_xpath->query( "//td[contains(text(),'1234')]/following-sibling::* | //td[contains(text(),'1234')] " );

Failed attempts all look similar to:

$bo_row = $bo_xpath->query( "//td[contains(text(),'1234')]/following-sibling::* | //td[contains(text(),'1234')]//*[not(self::script)] " );

Here is an example of one table row:

<tr>
                        <!-- <td><a class=info href="**Missing Data**">
                                <img src="../images/button_go.gif" border=0>
                                <span>**Missing Data**</span>
                                </a>
                        </td>  -->
                        <script>
                  if (document.getElementById("Function").value != 'Customer')
                            document.write('<td><a class=info href="OrdDetLine.pgm?Order=CV780&Page=02&Line=05&Seq=00&ShowPrice=&OpenOnly=&Function=Customer"><img src="../images/button_go.gif" border=0><span>Order Line Detail</span></a></td>');</script>

            <td align="left">2-05-00</td>
            <td align="left">        1234
            <script>if (document.getElementById("Function").value != 'Customer')
                    document.write("<a class=info href=#><img src=/operations/images/eye.png border=none onClick=window.open(\'StyleHdr.pgm?CompDiv=CO&Style=1234\'><span>Show style master information panel.</span></a>") ;     </script>
            </td>
            <td align="left">MEN'S LAB/SHOP COATS</td>
            <td align="left">REG</td>
            <td align="left">NAY</td>

                        <td align="right">1</td>

            <td align="right">April 12, 2019</td>

</tr>

I have tried using getAttribute to select the innertext like so:

$bo_row = $bo_xpath->query( "//tr/td[contains(text(),'1234')]/following-sibling::* | //td[contains(text(),'1234')] " );

echo '<br/>';
        if ( $bo_row->length > 0 ) {

            foreach ( $bo_row as $row ) {
                echo $row->getAttribute ('innerText');  

            }

However I am either using getAttribute incorrectly or it is not supposed by php as indicated by PHPstorm

You have to use getAttribue('innerText'). Here is the console output with 2 different approaches. enter image description here
