Is there code that can grab content from a website and log it to a file?

    I'm looking for some kind of script or code that can do the following:


    Whenever a person visits: http://mysite.com/file.php it'll secretly load the link of another website http://targetsite.com and grab the entire content on the page based on what the visitor would see if he had visited http://targetsite.com directly.


    It would log the content on my server as a .txt file or something like that


    Heres a diagram to make it more clear:

    libcurl will let you do that. It's probably the easiest screen scraper there is. (That's what you're doing, screen-scraping and keeping the entire screen.)
