Hi,
Well you've got the intention right .. it is to ease an admins job.
Lets say I have an existing system (ASP based ) which functions as a do*censored*ent repository.
I can run a search off this repository and save the results to a html file.
I then use the phpblock function to read stuff from the html file.
This is my alternative to the rdf feed,since a lot of the stuff that already exist would be a plain html file.
Now instead of creating a phpblock for every file , if the user can pass the parameter to the function phpblock_readfile then it would be much easier for the admin of my system.
Is there any other way of grepping data dynamically from an html file ??
We could converse via comments ...
cheers,
philomena
