Getting page title

[asantos]

Hi,
i need to get the title of an url through php.

Lets supose www.blablabla.com's title is "Welcome to Bla Bla Bla", but the user only enters the URL in the form... i have to somehow get the title.

The best way is to use CURL [us2.php.net] to retreive the page, and then probably parse out the title using string functions.

i dont have access to the servers config. is there another way around to accomplish this?

You may be able to grab the file contents using file_get_contents [php.net] and parse the string for the <title> element with a regular expression.
