Help me fix this easy script

[raimis100]

I have just started to learn php so I need a little help

I cant fix this easy script;

 

[<?php

  $phrase = file_get_contents('http://www.google.com/search?hl=lv&q=loan+student&btnG=Mekl%C4%93t&meta=');
  $Poz1 = strpos($phrase, "height=25");
  echo ($Poz1);
  $Poz2 = strpos($phrase, "</a></h2><table");
  echo $Poz2;
  $Cip = &Poz2 - $Poz1;  /* can't I just use - ? */
  echo substr($phrase, $Poz1 , $Cip);     /* so whats wrong with these 2 lines ? */

?> 

 

Got it working with pascal but cant do the same with php

 

What im trying to do is get the title of the first result in google but it shows error Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '-', expecting T_PAAMAYIM_NEKUDOTAYIM
