Hey all, I got a bit of a problem I need to be able to grab info (which has been approved) from the Australian Stock Exchange Website (www.asx.com.au) all they say about this in the information they sent me is: "To obtain your share price data you will need to get your IT department to write a java object or a com active x object to strip out the unnecessary html so that you are just left with your share price information." LOL I am the IT department (well part of it) and I don't use or would even recommend using these products not that there is anything wrong with them, furthermore even if I did this does not help me very much (c: I was sort of wondering if there is a way to do this sort of thing with PHP? the only other information I have is the URL in the form of: http://www.asx.com.au/scripts/nd_ISAPI_50.dll/asx/research/chartsSearch.jsp? searchBy=asxCode&TimeFrame=D&asxCode=ASX I tried a quick test using the filesystem functions with no success, I was sort of hoping for a 'Yes' / 'No" answer maybe if 'Yes' just a quick explanation. Any help would be much much appreciated.
