tau9 Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 Hi, I am trying to write a web crawler that goes to a number of sites and then retrieves data. i.e. If someone entered i.e. Gordon Brown they would get a list of hrefs with titles about the PM and links would be activated. I have some code that I have seen on other posts shown below: <?php $code = file_get_contents('http://news.bbc.co.uk/#top'); preg_match_all('#href=[\'"]([^\'"]+)[\'"]#i', $code, $matches); echo '<pre>'.print_r($matches[1], true); ?> But not sure how I would sort through to find topics related to the User Input i.e. Gordon Brown. Does anyone have any idea how to do this some suggestions on how? Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
