scraping a webpage for text

sarmenhb · 12-12-2008, 12:42 AM

hello,

i'm trying to make an app that when a user enters a domains name the file_get_contents will scrape only the visible text on the page and display to the user

this is what i've got so far

Code:

<?php
$data = file_get_contents('http://www.gothostin.com/sarmenhb');
$regex = '/[a-zA-z]/';
preg_match($regex,$data,$match);
var_dump($match);
echo $match[1];
?>

but i keep getting something like array{0} or something

what am i doing wrong?

thanks
