Saving HTML page to MySQL Database and then inserting code into that HTML and se

[bosmedia]

I'm trying to build something similar to the "Try on your site" on http://www.mywebpresenters.com/

 

I want to let users enter in their URL, then I need to save the HTML of that URL/Page to a MySQL database using PHP. I then need to insert a div containing more code and then serve up the whole lot to the user again.

 

I have done this using an IFrame but I'd like to do it better.

 

Can anyone shed light on this? Also, This will be used on a WordPress site if that adds in anyway.

 

Thanks in advance,

 

Barry

I gotta ask....why do you need a database for that? surely you can echo a file_get_contents within your div tags?

Thanks for your reply,

 

Could I use:

 

<?php
$homepage = file_get_contents('http://www.example.com/');
echo $homepage;
?>

 

to grab the HTML and then some way insert another div just after the opening body tag?

 

I'm a bit new to this so any help is much appreciated!

in theory yes, once you have loaded the file_get_contents() into a variable it's effectivly just another sring as far as PHP is concerned (all be it a fairly large one in most cases), so all string functions will work on it.
