Copy All Text & Copy All Links

[jj20051]

This is more of a 2 question post, so bear with me on this. They are both separate questions... I need to do two things:

 

1. I need to get php to take any url I enter, strip off all the formatting of the site, and place all the text into a variable. ( So it would strip off all the css, images, and other code and just leave the text, no links either ).

 

2. I need to be able to take all of the links off a page and place them in a database ( one per row ). I can do the database part, but how do I get the links together. I'm pretty sure this has something to do with a while() loop...

 

 

If you can teach me how to do either of these or point me somewhere it would be great.

Okay,

 

Well getting the contents would be simple

$x = file_get_contents("http://domain.com/blar");

removing tags.. strip_tags() or a regex would clean up most..

 

Well their will be no links, as you wanted them removed "no links either"

but again a regex could get these..

 

I don't mind helping but i won't write it for you (i get paid for that), if you write what you can and post your code i'll help from their!
