import hotmail contacts

Post by pjuarez55 »

Hi. Any of you know how to import hotmail contacts just like other sites already do, like hi5.com and ringo.com? You just enter your email/pswd and they retreive your contacts. Thanks.

it would just involve remote page requests and parsing of the pages.. not an easy task.. but not impossible, obviously.

look into curl and/or fsockopen to learn about making remote page requests.
