$contents = stream_get_meta_data($handle);

=================================================

Array

Hi,

Maybe something like:

$contents = stream_get_meta_data($handle);
$rawData = file_get_contents($contents["uri"]);

Hi, Erwin.
Your suggestion doesn`t seem work.
Thanks for your reply, anyway :=)

What is not working?
It should work.

What does the following produce for you:

$contents = stream_get_meta_data($handle);
$theUri = $contents["uri"];
echo "\$theUri=$theUri <br>\n";
$rawData = file_get_contents();
echo "\$rawData is:<br>\n $rawData ";

Just use CURL

Erwin,
see this link "Download data in csv file..." at
the very bottom of http://stooq.com.ua/q/d/?s=wig20 page.


============================================================
Captain Paralytic, I'll check out what is the CURL.

cURL must be OK.
What we need is to send *** 2 *** successive requests, preserving
session, referer etc.
The 1st one to the page with link to URI and the 2nd -- to this URI.

Pretty easy to to with cURL - session id is in a cookie or the URL
(probably the former), and you can set the referrer to anything you want.

Of course, there's also the question as to whether you have permission
from the site owner to access the information this way; many site owners
frown on it and will block you if they find out.

Remembering *** STATELESS NATURE OF HTTP *** this frowning looks very
ridiculous and silly. I.e., it's a kind of nonsense to frown on it =)


OK. Now it works. My script is:
===================================================================
$fp = fopen("cURL333.txt", "w");

$ch = curl_init();

///curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, "http://stooq.com.ua/q/d/?s=wig20");
////curl_exec($ch);
////$info = curl_getinfo($ch);
///////curl_setopt_array($ch, $info);

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, "http://stooq.com.ua/q/d/l/?
s=wig20&i=d");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, true);



curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array(
'GET http://stooq.com.ua/q/d/l/?s=wig20&i=d HTTP/1.0','Accept: image/
gif, image/x-xbitmap, image/jpeg, image/pjpeg, application/x-shockwave-
flash, application/vnd.ms-excel, application/msword, */*','Accept-
Language: ru,zh-cn;q=0.7,zh;q=0.3','Cookie: cookie_uu=110221000;
cookie_user=%3F0001dllg000011500d1300%7Cwig20','User-Agent: Mozilla/
4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1)','Host:
stooq.com.ua','Proxy-Connection: Keep-Alive'));



curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FILE, $fp);

curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
fclose($fp);
================================================================

But I'm a total ***newb*** in PHP and got those headers by some other
way.
How can we get them ***automatically*** after hitting the 1st page???

===============================================
P.S. The saved file looks like this:

Not at all - it is commonly done, and pretty easy - I've done it for
clients who have had their content reused without their permission. It
is also illegal in most (all?) countries.

As for retrieving the information, if you've got the header info for the
file, you should be able to fetch the file itself with cURL.

But as it's pretty obvious from your answer above that you don't have
permission to do this, sorry, I won't help you.

Btw in VBA it can be done even (much) easier:
==================================================

Sub w2()
Dim o As New WinHttp.WinHttpRequest
o.Open "GET", "http://stooq.com.ua/q/d/?s=wig20", False
o.Send
o.Open "GET", "http://stooq.com.ua/q/d/l/?s=wig20&i=d", False
o.Send
MsgBox o.ResponseText
Set o = Nothing
End Sub

Hi,

Glad you figured it out.
SO it was the Session that was demanded to proceed? That is quite common
indeed.

About VBA being "much easier": It seem to me VBA is sending cookies as a
default setting when using WinHttp.WinHttpRequest.
I am not sure I would classify that behavior as "much easier". It is
just "much easier" in this case.
Personally I like the detailed control one has when using CURL.

Regards,
Erwin Moller

Erwin, of course, you are right.
PHP's fine granularity of control over everything is much more
powerful thing.
It's a senseless idea to compare it against VBA's web/http candies.


> SO it was the Session that was demanded to proceed?

Yes. Precisely in this case it's only cookies and not e.g. REFERER
header.
