LOL, that would have been covered in the follow-up PHP course Steve. Had
there been one. :-(

It's called screen scraping. Experiment with this

$html_content = implode('', file('http://www.example.com'));
$begin="begin marker";
$end="end marker";

preg_match("/$begin(.*)$end/i", $html_content, $match[]);

print_r($match);
