How to get the dynamic generated content of an external ASP file using PhP?
- by theCrius
This is the situation:
I've a PhP login page that check is an external ASP page has generated something (nickname).
For example:
i'm logged? So opening directly the asp page will display "nickname:thecrius" and nothing more.
I'm not logged? So opening the ASP page will display nothing.
Now i've to catch the "thecrius" string with a PhP page.
Using file_get_contents only return me "nickname:", the "static" part of the asp page.
What i'm doing wrong?
Some codes:
$aspSource = "http://www.domain.com/inc/whois.asp"; //ASP external
$file = file_get_contents($aspSource); //get content of the asp page
$start = strpos($file, "username:") + 9; //cutting off the "nickname:"
$username = substr($file, $start); //get the username
echo "URL-> $aspSource<br>Content-> $file<br>Start-> $start<br>Username-> $username<br>END";
But the result is only
URL-> http://www.domain.com/inc/whois.asp
Content-> username:
Start-> 9
Username->
END
Thanks in advance to anyone will help!
