Hello,
I need to come up with a solution where a php script will open connection to a webpage and will return success message if a particlar code snippet is found on that webpage.
Here's the code snippet i'd likely be searching for in the webpage:


I want to search this code snippet throughout that webpage and return successfull message if it succeeds. I think i'll have to use regex for matching this? Can anybody please help me with this, i'm stuck.

Thanks

I think I don't understand the problem...

maybe you should try using preg_match()

I'm not sure it's possible...
To make php script open connection to a webpage, and to make it return messege on success. I'm not sure about the ability of PHP to do it as a server-side languge.

Personally I've never tried this before, but you might be able to do it with fopen() if your host allows the URL wrapper for file functions, or you could use curl() to open it (if your PHP has it installed, I'm not sure it's compiled by default).

It's possible...
Zainzz:

you can do something like this:



if that's what you need...

He wants to open connection to a webpage, and you gave him preg function...

I'm sorry if I didn't make it clear. I know how to open a connection to the server and wanted the steps ahead i.e. how to search (preg_match) using regex that the code snippet EXISTS on that webpage. I guess i'll be using NOW's code snippet ... I'll let you know if it worked

Thanks for helping

Can i get the preg_match version of the preg_replace code above please? so that i can match if such a thing is on the webpage?


and my bad.. the actual code i wanted to match was:
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://localhost/fetchlinks.php?id=1">
</script>

preg_replace: preg_match (directly from the script withot the $txt var) and preg_match that you can use after the first code: $match can be 'TRUE' or 'FALSE' only...

aah.. thanks a lot...
this is what i'm finally using
