Multiple websites question.

Hi, does php have any functionality that enables a programmer to extract information from a website on the internet and display it on their own?  Any help or suggestions on where to go and look for a solution will be much appreciated.

hai i wrote this one long back just check it out

$ch = curl_init();curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, "http://chaitu09986025424.blog.co.in");curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_BINARYTRANSFER, true);$output = curl_exec($ch);echo $output;

if u like to get the code with the html tags then use the echo like this.

echo htmlspecialchars($output);

if u want the exact source code of the website then u can get it more easily.

<form action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>" method="post"><table align="center" border="1" bordercolor="black" >          <tr><td align="center" bgcolor="Green">Enter Website :<input name="Website" type="text" size="100" value="http://" ></td></tr>          <tr><td align="center"><input type="submit" name="submitBtn" value="Submit"></td></tr></table> </form><?phperror_reporting (off);// Get the HTML source of google$site_address=$_POST['Website'];//$count = file ('http://rediff.com/'); $count = file ($site_address);// Loop through our arrayif($site_address==''|| $count==''){    echo "Please enter a valid URL";}else{foreach ($count as $line_num => $line) {$line_new=htmlspecialchars($line);echo "<table align='center' width='95%' border='0' cellpadding='5' cellspacing='5'><tr style='background:red;font-color:white;font-weight:strong;'>   <td colspan='2'>Line #{$line_num} :</td><td bgcolor=yellow width=100%><font face=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif size=2><b>$line_new</b></font></td></tr></table><br>\n";}}?>
