    You have to use CURL library of php. And with the help of regular expressions you can write the code for fetching the data from different sites.

    Not 100% sure about your question, if you're trying to get the info off other websites, and they don't require login.
    $html_source = file_get_contents('http://www.site.com/asd.txt');
    or
    $html_source = file_get_contents('http://www.site.com/product.html?id=' . $product_id);
    or
    $html_source = file_get_contents("http://www.site.com/product.html?id=$product_id");

    The last 2 do the same thing.
