Using File Open

[rascle]

Hi

I have been looking at the tutorials on W3 Schools about file open but I havent been able to find what I want. I am trying to make some code that connects to a website (I can do that part) and search through the page until It reaches a specified piece of text, it would then change that code and save the file.

Does anyone know how I could do this??

Thanks

Rhys

file_put_contents('/path/to/file/to/save.html',
			  str_replace('text to replace', 'replacement text',
						  file_get_contents('http://example.com/page.html'));

Thanks

However I get a reply "Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ';' in /home/b25rasc/public_html/test.php on line 22" Also what does "file_get_contents('http://example.com/page.html'));" do?? Should I put the target web address there?

Thanks

Sorry, forgot a closing ), and yes replace with the URL you want.

 

file_put_contents('/path/to/file/to/save.html',
			  str_replace('text to replace', 'replacement text',
						  file_get_contents('http://example.com/page.html')));
