Strip Data From Twitter Feed help?

[Jnerocorp]

here is the code I have:

 

<?php
header('Cache-Control: no-cache, no-store, must-revalidate');
header('Expires: Sun, 01 Jul 2005 00:00:00 GMT');
header('Pragma: no-cache');


function crop($str, $len) {
    if ( strlen($str) <= $len ) {
        return $str;
    }

    // find the longest possible match
    $pos = 0;
    foreach ( array('. ', '? ', '! ') as $punct ) {
        $npos = strpos($str, $punct);
        if ( $npos > $pos && $npos < $len ) {
            $pos = $npos;
        }
    }

    if ( !$pos ) {
        // substr $len-3, because the ellipsis adds 3 chars
        return substr($str, 0, $len) . ''; 
    }
    else {
        // $pos+1 to grab punctuation mark
        return substr($str, 0, $pos+1);
    }
}


function shorten_string($string, $wordsreturned)
{
$retval = $string;
$array = explode(" ", $string);

if (count($array)<=$wordsreturned)
	{
	$retval = $string;
	}
else
	{
	array_splice($array, $wordsreturned);
	$retval = implode(" ", $array)." ...";
	}
return $retval;
}


function shorten_string_3c($string)
{
$retval = '';
$array = explode("_", $string);

for ($i = 0; $i < count($array); $i++) {
if (strlen($array[$i]) > 0)
$retval = $retval . $array[$i] . '_';
}	

return $retval;
}


        $ch = curl_init("http://search.twitter.com/search?q=RT+%40".$x_twitterid."");
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);
//        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
	  
	  curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, 'Googlebot/2.1 (+http://www.google.com/bot.html)');
	  curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_REFERER, 'http://www.google.com');

	  curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 10);
        $output = curl_exec($ch);      
        curl_close($ch);
	//echo $output;

	$txres = split('<li class="result ">',$output);

for($i=1; $i<count($txres); $i=$i+1)
{
	$tmp111 = split('<div class="info">',$txres[$i]);
	$xstmp = str_replace('<a','<i',$tmp111[0]);
	$xstmp = str_replace('</a','</i',$xstmp);
	$xstmp = str_replace('<b>RT</b>','',$xstmp);
	$xstmp1 = split('</div>',$xstmp);
	$xstmp2 = $xstmp1[1];
	$xstmp2 = str_replace('expand</i>','</i>',$xstmp2);
	$xstmp2 = str_replace('</i>: <','</i> <',$xstmp2);
	$xresults = $xresults . $xstmp2 ."</div><br><br>";
}

I need:

- To kill duplicates on search results, if a text string matches another result it should only display one

- Strip username out of the search.

- Display timestamps

 

 

but I am unsure of how to do this
