Get iframe source code

Actually after executing your function, the

echo $str;

prints only a number 1...
so there should be something wrong...

Did you try the easy way first?  Try my code below, it works ! You can modify the $url to whatever page you like and change the $findme to something you know is in the source code then load the page (below). The source code is located inside $contents. Try it.

<?php
$url = 'http://www.google.co.nz'; 
$findme = 'New Zealand'; 
$contents = file_get_contents($url); 
$n = strpos($contents, $findme);
if($n != 0){
echo "Found ".$needle." at position ".$n."<br>"; 
} else { 
echo 'not found'; 
}
?>

Woops...please change the word $needle to $findme so it is

echo "Found ".$findme." at position ".$n."<br>";

Keep in mind that you will NOT be able to get any PHP coding from the $url only the actual rendered webpage that is sent to the browser window. Imagine if you could get the PHP behind any php page how much of a security problem that would be !

Hi elvin66,
thank you for your code.
As I described in my question, I already tried the function file_get_contents() and it return an error that says that the browser is not supported.
I also tried again your code just to make sure and if I execute at the end of your code 'echo $contents' that should show the full page... it's again the same problem...
The html of an error page is stored in $contents.

Ok sorry about that, I didn't read carefully enough. I tested it with Opera browser. Have you got the latest version of your browser and which browser is it?

There is nothing wrong with my browser. If I open the page is http://www.domain.com/page.php it works with any browser. If I use the file_get_contents('http://www.domain.com/page.php') then it gives browser error with any browser.

It's clear that this doesn't depend on the browser but on http://www.domain.com/page.php that somehow does't allow it.

If it's a browser problem, why if I use Safari, Firefox or Opera to connect http://www.domain.com/page.php everything works, and if I use all the same browser to execute your script that prints the content of http://www.domain.com/page.php I get browser error?

I do not know, but like I said, I have Firefox 3.5 and Opera 10.01 and Epiphany 2.26.1 and it works great in all 3 browsers. Can you try using a different machine perhaps? Another thing that is possible is maybe a setting on your server or something. Are you using a localhost server on your Pc ?

I know some service providers do not allow the use of "file_get_contents();" and they block it. I have uploaded my script to one of my online servers. Please try it at this link

If it still does not work, then it is a problem on your machine, if not, it's a problem with your server. Let me know the results.

I can see your domain registration page.

What? No you can't lol. You are seeing the page that you game me the URL for "http://www.domain.com/page.php"
So, it's working then yes?

:D yep I could see the page so it's not a problem of my machine but of server that is blocking the request... I guess there is no solution for this... I will have to think of some workaround.
But I guess your idea was the closest to get it working if the server would have allow it.

Thank you
