Re: stock quotes

Hi , I am also very interested to know if the scripts provided at : http://www.devhome.net/php/scripts/smarket.html can be used for the currency exchange rate? Or if it cannot, Can anybody tell me where could I get anything similar? I mean, alternative way of using fopen will be interesting.
