Re: collecting data from website.
Yes you can make a dynamic site with php. Are you wanting to connect to a MySQL database and getting information, or stripping information from another website?

He has a tonne of HTML pages with tables on them which he wishes to gather data from, and insert it into a database.
I'm thinking string replaces and loops through the rows, though it will only work if the document is well formed (HTML? Well formed? :lol:).
Or is it XHTML.. maybe then it's a different matter.

Assalam Allykum Shahid,
why don't you just use any CMS (Content Management System) ? I think its a perfect solution.
