Possibly Advanced PHP Question

[iostream.h]

I would like to set the source of a remote webpage into a variable. Would this be possible with PHP?

Thanks in advance.

if you have allow_url_fopen set to TRUE in your php.ini you can use the file_get_contents() function.

Example:

$pageHtml = file_get_contents("http://www.google.com");

<?php

$c = curl_init("http://www.page.com");
curl_setopt($c,CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1);
$page = curl_exec($c);
curl_close($c);

print $page;

?>

damn yours was shorter.

Thank you both so much

Hmm, for some reason I get a weird result (same thing with both of your methods).

I'm wondering if this is because it is an xml document (I don't know why I didn't mention that earlier)?

 

[superbovine]

the page is encrypted is my guess.

just add https:// in the curl statement

I would ask what URL are you trying to read and which method you are trying?

I would ask what URL are you trying to read and which method you are trying?

The URL is secret in this case, as it pertains to a really nice project (OSX and iTMS related) I'm going to release in the near future (If either of you would like to help, we could discuss it in a more discreet nature). And that result occurred with both methods.

Send an email to olliewagner@mac.com if you'd like to discuss this further.
