With some little changes to hobodave's code, here is a codesnippet you can use to crawl pages. This needs the curl extension to be enabled in your server.
<?php
//set_time_limit (0);
function crawl_page($url, $depth = 5){
$seen = array();
if(($depth == 0) or (in_array($url, $seen))){
return;
}
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 30);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1);
$result = curl_exec ($ch);
curl_close ($ch);
if( $result ){
$stripped_file = strip_tags($result, "<a>");
preg_match_all("/<a[\s]+[^>]*?href[\s]?=[\s\"\']+"."(.*?)[\"\']+.*?>"."([^<]+|.*?)?<\/a>/", $stripped_file, $matches, PREG_SET_ORDER );
foreach($matches as $match){
$href = $match[1];
if (0 !== strpos($href, 'http')) {
$path = '/' . ltrim($href, '/');
if (extension_loaded('http')) {
$href = http_build_url($href , array('path' => $path));
} else {
$parts = parse_url($href);
$href = $parts['scheme'] . '://';
if (isset($parts['user']) && isset($parts['pass'])) {
$href .= $parts['user'] . ':' . $parts['pass'] . '@';
}
$href .= $parts['host'];
if (isset($parts['port'])) {
$href .= ':' . $parts['port'];
}
$href .= $path;
}
}
crawl_page($href, $depth - 1);
}
}
echo "Crawled {$href}";
}
crawl_page("http://www.sitename.com/",3);
?>
