[SOLVED] Help with a Simple Spider


JSHINER

Recommended Posts

I reposted this from "Regex within PHP" because I feel this is a PHP lproblem not Regex.

 

You can view the previous posts here: http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php/topic,161945.0.html

 

And what I am trying to do is start at a pre-defined page, find all the links on that page and run the spider on all of the pages that were found, and return the results from those pages that were spidered.

 

Here is the code I have been working with:

<?php
$seed = "http://www.site.com/sub/index.htm";
$data = file_get_contents($seed);
if (preg_match_all("/http:\/\/www.site.com\/sub\/[^\"\s']+/", $data, $links)) 
{
     for ($i=0;$i<count($links[0]);$i++) 
     {
	$data_b = file_get_contents($links[0][$i]);

if (preg_match_all("/\http:[^\"\s']+/", $data_b, $links_b)) 
{

header("Content-type: text/plain");

     for ($i_b=0;$i_b<count($links_b[0]);$i_b++) 
     
     {
     
     echo $links_b[0][$i_b]. "\n";
     }
}
}
}
?>

 

Any help would be much appreciated!

 

PS: Sorry if moving myself was a problem, but the Regex forums do not get the action the PHP ones get, AND I know my preg_match_all work on single pages, so I figure the problem must be in the PHP logic. :)

Ok just about there. Got it all figured out except if there is a link on the first page twice, I only need it spidered once. How can I do that?

 

Here is the current code:

 

<?php
$seed = "http://www.site.com/page.html";
$data = file_get_contents($seed);
if (preg_match_all(/\http:[^\"\s']+/", $data, $links)) 
{
     for ($i=0;$i<count($links[0]);$i++) 
     {

$data_b = file_get_contents('http://www.site.com/sub/'. $links[0][$i]);

if (preg_match_all(/\http:[^\"\s']+/", $data_b, $links_b)) 
{

@header("Content-type: text/plain");

     for ($i_b=0;$i_b<count($links_b[0]);$i_b++) 
     
     {
     
     echo $links_b[0][$i_b]. "\n";
     
     }
}
}
}

?>
