extracting HTML from another site

[Anon]

Here is an HTML file:

http://finance.yahoo.com/q?s=ADP&d=v4

Now, if you open it, how would I make a program that takes the whole table containing the info about the company (i.e. Symbol, Name, Last Trade, etc.)? Is that at all possible?

You may want to examince my code... this is how I get weather forcasting for one of my sites:

<?php
$GrabURL = "http://weather.oneclick.gr/Europe/Moscow.go";

$GrabStart = "Temperature between <B>";
$GrabEnd = "</B>&deg;C.";

$file = fopen($GrabURL, "r");
$rf = fread($file, 30000);
fclose($file);

$grab = eregi("$GrabStart(.*)$GrabEnd", $rf, $printing);

$tempm = explode("</B> and <B>", $printing[1]);

echo $tempm[1];echo "&deg;";
?>

I used to take it from Yahoo... but then, suddenly, it stopped working and I couldn't "STEAL" any more info from Yahoo... don't know why... I managed to get the whole file though, but couldn't CUT OUT the lines i needed, strange or?... works fine on any other site though 🙂 hope it will work on your Yahoo Finance thingy too 🙂)
