Question

I’m using the below code to pull the html text from a site to publish on my own.

How can I manipulate the curl handle before echo?

$ch = curl_init();

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_VERBOSE, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 0);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1);

$returned = curl_exec($ch);

curl_close ($ch);

echo $returned;

Answer 1

You can manipulate your returned data:

$returned = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close ($ch);
$returned is the response so you can manipulate it

Did you mean something like this
