lots of results on this forum, $temp = file_get_contents('http://example.com/weather/javascriptfile.js'); echo "document.writeln(obTemperature);";

the javascriptfile.js contains

var obTemperature = "55";
var obIconCode = "01";

but this only works if the page loads, the javascript file is already loaded into memory,

  • i dont see how that code could possibly work you do noting with `$temp` for a start –  Dec 13 '16 at 21:27
  • What result are you trying to achieve? What exactly do you think `var obTemperature = echo $obTemperature;` does? – Patrick Q Dec 13 '16 at 21:28

  • you can try with regex and the preg_match() php function. $input = file_get_contents('http://example.com/weather/javascriptfile.js'); preg_match("/var (.*) = \"(.*)\";/", $input, $output); the output array should look something like this : array( 0 => 'var obTemperature = "55";' 1 => '0bTemperature' 2 => '55' ) The regex can be improved, this is for the idea ;) – rudak Dec 13 '16 at 21:37
  • $temp was read from _GET solution on stackoverflow not working – DOMDocumentVideoSource Dec 13 '16 at 21:41
