[SOLVED] Show part of a website within a website?

[uwictech]

Hi all,

 

On the Home page of a website that I have designed, I would like to show parts of other websites.

 

The other websites contain information such as health monitors for different parts of the network. Another website may contain the temperatures in the server rooms.

 

I would like to pull these all together on my home page like little port lets.

 

Is this possible with PHP, or would something like java scrip be more useful?

I guess you would be able to get the HTML and try and preg-match between two tags.

 

Is the section of the website wrapped in a div with an id:

 

<div id="status"><p>Foo</p></div>

 

If so you could match against that and output the HTML yourself (might be an idea to cache it).

use $content = file_get_contents("http://www.someothersites.com/url.html");

then use preg_match() to get what you need.

 

But this is slow.

So you can make your index PHP page to HTML page periodically.
