USD to INR conversion

<?php

function currency($from_Currency,$to_Currency,$amount) {
$amount = urlencode($amount);
$from_Currency = urlencode($from_Currency);
$to_Currency = urlencode($to_Currency);
$url = "http://www.google.com/ig/calculator?hl=en&q=$amount$from_Currency=?$to_Currency";
$ch = curl_init();
$timeout = 0;
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($ch,  CURLOPT_USERAGENT , "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 6.1)");
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, $timeout);
$rawdata = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
$data = explode('"', $rawdata);
$data = explode(' ', $data['3']);
$var = $data['0'];
return round($var,2);
}

echo currency("USD","INR",1.00);

?>

Note: It needs the curl extension to work properly.

php get content between tags

This involves parsing the dom document. <?php function getTextBetweenTags($tag, $html) {     $dom = new domDocument;     @$dom->loadHTML($html);         $dom->preserveWhiteSpace = false;     $content = $dom->getElementsByTagname($tag);     $out = array();         foreach ($content as $item)     {         $out[] = $item->nodeValue;     }     return $out; } $xhtml = '<tag>abc def</tag><tag>123 456</tag>'; $content2 = getTextBetweenTags('tag', $xhtml); foreach( $content2 as $item ) {     echo $item.'<br />'; } ?> Output: abc def 123 456
