curl - Fetch data from other site (php & GET)
Answer
Answer
I am trying to get data from a site and be able to manipulate it to display it on my own site.
The site contains a table with ticks and is updated every few hours.
Here's an example: http://www.astynomia.gr/traffic-athens.php
This data is there for everyone to use, and I will mention them on my own site just to be sure.
I've read something about php's cURL but I have no idea if this is the way to go.
Any pointers/tutorials, or code anyone could provide so I can start somewhere would be very helpful.
Also any pointers on how I can get informed as soon as the site is updated?
Answer
