In this tutorials I will show you how to grab from MySpace: User default photo, Profile name, age, sex, location and link.

So lets start with the php to pull the info from MySpace. In this example i will be using a form to pull the user.
Get the source files: DOWNLOAD
See the DEMO

name this file “myspace.class.php”

//the function
function myspace(){

//keeps the page clear until the form is submitted.
if($_POST['submit']){ 

  //Gets name or email from the form
  $name = $_POST['name'];
  //Gets the source code from the MySpace page
  $source = implode(file("http://searchservice.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=sitesearch.results&type=People&qry=".$name.""));
  //Look for

  $search = '
';
  //here is where we seperate everything from the page except the $search value
  $newText = substr($source,strpos($source, $search)+strlen($search), 1000);
  //if the user doesnt exist
  $destroy = strip_tags($newText, '







');
  //If the user doesnt exist it will print the doctype code, the code contains dtd
  if(strstr($destroy, 'dtd')){

    echo "
";
    //if dtd is present lets make it say...
    echo "".$_POST['name'].", Does not exist on MySpace";

    echo "

";

  }else{

    echo "
";
    //otherwise show the search results
    echo strip_tags($newText, '







');

    echo "

";
  }

 }

}

next the form/results page

Enter MySpace username or email:

Add this under the form

   include ('myspace.class.php');
   myspace();

Now for style.css

body {
font-family:verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif;
font-size:11px;
}
.searchResults {
float:left;
width:auto;
}
.profilePhoto {
float:left;
overflow:hidden;
padding:13px 25px 13px 7px;
}
.userInfo {
float:left;
line-height:18px;
padding:10px 0;
}
.userInfo a {
font-size:12px;
text-decoration:underline;
}
.vanity {
color:#008800;
}
.profilePhoto img {
width:80px;
}
.pilRealName {
display:none;
}
.doIt {
display:none;
}
.exist {
padding:10px;
font-weight:bold;
}
img {
border:0 none;
}

Now run it, enter a username or email and grab some MySpace User Info. I use this on another site, using thier emails from the database to pull thier user info.
