Curl applied on a simple example that gets a HTTP page ->storing all in a MySQL-DB

update: the answer from virtualeyes (below) looks pretty nice: but now a bit code-sanititzing should be applied:

$ch = curl_init("http://www.aktive-buergerschaft.de/buergerstiftungsfinder");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);  
$buffer = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
$result = explode(",", $buffer);
print_r($result); 

and with the corrections we have something like the following:

$ch = curl_init("htt开发者_StackOverflow社区p://www.aktive-buergerschaft.de/buergerstiftungsfinder");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);  
$buffer = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
$result = explode(",", $buffer);
foreach($result as $k => $v) {echo $k." ".$v} 
if $v is itself an array) 
   // print_r($result);

see the additional infos from virtualeye... [a big thanks to Virtualeye]

yes, print_r just prints out the response, 
in this case presumably as an array (if viewing the output in web browser, 
do view-source to see structured array). 
Depending on num dimensions, we could do, 
foreach($result as $k => $v) {echo $k." ".$v} 
to view and work with data 
(adding sub foreach loops accordingly; i.e. 
if $v is itself an array) 

here the old text from the original question:

today i want to apply Curl on a very simple example that gets a HTTP page - review in order to harvest the data of this pretty simple

see this totally easy page: http://www.aktive-buergerschaft.de/buergerstiftungsfinder here we have a list of Foundations: We can see a bunch (approx 1000 records on Foundations). Well - my intention is to store the data in a locally database (favourite db is MySQL):

here is my simple approach - what is missing are two parts: The processing of the results and the storing of the results of the parser - into the MySQL-DB. This part goes somewhat over my head.

Well the result of the Fetching with Curl should be given to arrays - shouldn ´t it!? If someone can help me here i would be glad!

<?php
//
// A very simple example that gets a HTTP page.
//

$ch = curl_init();

curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_URL, "http://www.aktive-buergerschaft.de/buergerstiftungsfinder");
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);


curl_exec ($ch);

curl_close ($ch);

// well here i want to put the results into an array... [multidimensioal or not !?! ]

?>

see the example here on this page: (at the top)

The link "Weitere Details zu dieser Stiftung" which is: in english More details to this Foundation"

this link has to be followed and the results (also) to be parsed. If you follow the link then you see: There are some additional infos that should be stored too!

Well - what is needed now: I need to have the details for the arrays Can any body enlarge the codebits that can be seen above - and give me a hint!? I look forward to this...

Something like this should work for you:

$ch = curl_init("http://www.aktive-buergerschaft.de/buergerstiftungsfinder");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);  
$buffer = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
$result = explode(",", $buffer);
print_r($result);
