U want to catch the HTML source of the web page but I can't get this by file_get_contents().Us there any function to do that, or any method for doing that.

Yes: output buffering.

Off hand, I don't know how to use it (never needed it), but you could check at php.net [php.net].

You can also do this manually by directing all intended output to a variable and the echoing it.

PHP's CURL functions will do what you want. Initiate a CURL session, grab a URL, assign it to a variable.
