How to pull the title from someone else's page?

Question

PHP

Actually, I messed up the script, but something doesn't work, tell me, please :-D

I've never done a parser, I'm new to PHP :-)

Answer 1

Actually muddied the answer, but something was not marked with a solution :-D

function getTitle($Url){
    $str = file_get_contents($Url);
    if(strlen($str)>0){
        preg_match("/\<title\>(.*)\<\/title\>/",$str,$title);
        return $title[1];
    }
}

echo getTitle("http://www.washingtontimes.com/");
