Maybe you are looking is CURL function.

Here's a more useful use of the same idea:
<?php
if (isset($Url)) {
$ThePageContents = file_get_contents($Url);
$TheNewPageContents =
preg_replace(
'/(<head[^>]*>)/',
"\1<base href='$Url/' />",
$ThePageContents);
echo $TheNewPageContents;
} else {
echo "Enter a URL as a query string in this URL, e.g.:
<br /><a href=\"${_SERVER['PHP_SELF']}?Url=http://www.yahoo.com\";
>
http://${_SERVER['SERVER_NAME']}${_SERVER['PHP_SELF']}?Url=
http://www.yahoo.com</a>";
}
?>
This allows you to run your own rather sloppy proxy. Just plug the url
you want into the query string for your page (or, better still, make a
form to post it):
https://mydomain.com/mypage.php?Url=http://DomainIWantToView.com/PageIWantToView.html
The regex adds a <base> tag to the remote web page to make the images
and links work.
But of course, that means the gets of all the images, css, js, etc. will
all show up with your workstation IP on the remote server's log (and on
your boss's log of your browsing), so you haven't really accomplished
much :(
But it's kind of fun, huh?
