Open a socket with fsockopen() to port 80. Then use fputs() to send an HTTP
request. Use fgets() to read the response. Finally, use fclose() to destroy
the socket. This response will include everything that you have asked about,
which you must then parse on your own.

Here is a little example:

<?php

$sock = fsockopen('php.net', 80);

fputs($sock, "GET / HTTP/1.1\r\nHost: php.net\r\nUser-Agent:
Firefox\r\nConnection: close\r\n\r\n");

while(($buf = fgets($sock, 4096)) !== false)
{
echo $buf;
}

fclose($sock);

?>
