I need something like a RuneScape Online Players grabber, but I need to grab the amount of posts a thread has on a certain forum…Any help?

why php, just use a scar script?

yeah use srl, this function is special for it

StatsGrabberMAdeForelkins;

try it maybe… xD

procedure StatsGrabberMadeForElkins;
var
  PageContent: string;
begin
  PageContent := GetPage('http://www..com');
  PageContent := Between('somthing', 'sonthing', PageContent);
  Writeln(PageContent);
end;

I want to echo it onto the page via HTML is why…
I'm not a good PHP scripter…I want a page that grabs a simple post number and echoes it…


EDIT: Timer, for between in SCAR, does it mean between the html code? or just the shown text.?

between…

begin
  Writeln(getpage('http://www..com');
end.

-.- You didn't answer my question. Does it retrieve what is between the visible text on that page, or between the HTML code inside it.

idk, just run that, you'll see!! lol

Ok, so now I have it to where it retrieves the stuff…But now I need to make it into a website…

dude this SRL-FORUMS not CRAZY-ELKINS IDEA FORUMS

It's also a request forum. I don't admire your post.

Well.. I would help, but I don't exactly know what you need.

So you need something like the echo(); command?
or just you need to know how to setup a webpage with php?

I need to know how to make PHP grab text between two words on a website, and echo them.

Ah.. ok, well I have a function for that already:

[PHP]function str_between($str, $betw, $betw2)
{
$str = " " . $str;
$pos = strpos($str, $betw);
if ($pos > 0)
{
$str2 = substr($str, $pos + strlen($betw));
$pos2 = strpos($str2, $betw2);
if ($pos2 == 0)
return '';
return substr($str2, 0, $pos2);
}
else
{
return '';
}
}[/PHP]

Would this work then?:

[PHP]<?php

function str_between($str, $betw, $betw2)
{
$str = " " . $str;
$pos = strpos($str, $betw);
if ($pos > 0)
{
$str2 = substr($str, $pos + strlen($betw));
$pos2 = strpos($str2, $betw2);
if ($pos2 == 0)
return '';
return substr($str2, 0, $pos2);
}
else
{
return '';
}
}

$users = str_between('http://srl-forums.com/forum/','<a href="online.php" rel="nofollow">','<a href="online.php" rel="nofollow">Currently Active Users</a>','</div></div>');
echo $users;

?>[/PHP]

That wouldn't… you have to do a file_get_contents to get a webpage.

I tested this, and it works:
[PHP]<?php

function str_between($str, $betw, $betw2)
{
$str = " " . $str;
$pos = strpos($str, $betw);
if ($pos > 0)
{
$str2 = substr($str, $pos + strlen($betw));
$pos2 = strpos($str2, $betw2);
if ($pos2 == 0)
return '';
return substr($str2, 0, $pos2);
}
else
{
return '';
}
}

$site = file_get_contents('http://srl-forums.com/forum/');
$users = str_between($site, 'Currently Active Users</a>:', '
</td>');
echo $users;

?> [/PHP]

Gravedig, sorry, my post is worth it ;)

Botmaster has a player grabber, check it out - is that what you mean?

He just wants to print the online players on a HTML page…
Not that hard in PHP. :)
