Baseball Stats

I have a site, and I want to be able to create player pages and have the stats updated automatically. What is the code I need for this? For an example please use Andruw Jones and stats from ESPN.com

Have you contacted the sites in question to ask for permission. Otherwise I believe this may be copyright infringement and is very easy to track since it is a direct copy. Just a word of warning, thats all.

I haven't yet, Im jus asking to know how to do. I also have to be careful because MLB is shutting down fan sites.

OK, well basically this is what the code needs to do:

1. Load the remote page into an array/var.
2. Parse the page to select the information required.
3. Remove formatting from data and return as XML/array etc.

Do you have 'allow_url_fopen = 1' in your php.ini file? I believe this is the setting that allows you to use fopen to access the remote file.

What do people think is the best way of retrieving a remote file, using fopen() or fsockopen()? I don't have much experience of remote file retrieval.

Once I know this, I will be able to write some code for you.

I have no idea what your talking about.

No, that was just a general question to all forum users. Matt, notepad, any ideas?
