Web clipping of a "remote" web page for insertion into a "local" page: is it possible?

Posted by soren625 on 12/12/06 15:47

What I am trying to do is grab a little snippet of data from a remote
page based on user input in a form. Take a look at this page:
http://www.qrz.com/kb2gsd

What I want to do is: when a user types the call sign (in this case,
KB2GSD) into a form field, I want to execute an XPath query (or somehow
otherwise process the contents of the page)
to automatically complete the Name, Location, etc. fields in my "local"
page from a "remote" web
page like the one listed above.

Is this possible with PHP? If so, what functions, libraries, etc. do I
need to read about in order to do this? I have searched a good deal for
examples/previously asked questions about this, but with little
success. What search terms might I use to find out a bit more about
this?

Thanks for reading and thanks for a response if you're able to help.
