retrieving information form other web pages

Post by mingo »

Does anyone know how to retrieve SPECIFIC (only the required information in a particular page) information from other web sites using PHP?

Would it be possible to provide an example?

Thanks a lot!!! :)

If you're looking for the PHP code itself, and they don't freely hand it out to you, then you're (basically) not going to get it.

If you're just trying to retrieve information on that certain page, then I'd look at a script from EvilWalrus.com (EW will soon become your best friend :))
