Using cURL or this …
$html = file_get_contents('http://stackoverflow.com/questions/ask');
gets the web page, but it also renders it as a normal web page and I just want the text.
Erm… all
file_get_contentsdoes is get the contents of the file. It only looks like “rendered” HTML because you’re dumping it right into the output stream. Try running it throughhtmlspecialcharsbefore outputting it.
