Hello Jonathan,

The file_get_contents() function will allow you to get the contents of a
page into a variable that you can parse.

Once loaded into a string you have all sorts of string functions at your
disposal to get the job done.

Take a look at the manual: http://www.php.net/docs.php

Search for file_get_contents and strings for syntax and examples.

Good Luck
