Load page into string

sstonge

Hi
This might be a simple question, but I was windering if there was a way to load a html page code into a string.

Not using
$page = "<html>...";

but a way to make $page get it's valuse from an html page.

Thanks

Usually, you can use fopen(), fread(), fclose() using the URL as the file name:

$url = 'http://www.domain.com/page.html';
$handle = fopen($url, 'r');
$data = fread($handle, #); // where # is the number of bytes you want to read into the string
fclose($handle);
