I am trying to write a script where I have a user enter a number and when they do that I want the script to search a different site to see if that number comes up and if it does I would like the name of the item to be brought back and put in my script. My basic question is how would I go about parsing information from my page to another page that I do not have control over
 
Well, if you enable the configuration directive allow_url_fopen, you can simply open the other page as if it were a file. For example, [tt]$fp = fopen("[/tt]

I REALLY hope that helps.

Thanks for the help
