Open and process remote page

I want to be able to ask users for a URL, open that page, change some of the
contents and then display that page as if they had typed the URL into a
browser. I have toyed with some of the php functions for opening URLs, but
what I am not clear on is how much work my script will have to do (do I need
to fully emulate a browser, for example).

The net effect I am after is very similar to the page translation feature
that Google offers. Does anyone have any examples of this kind of technique.
Any ideas how much work is involved? (My 'translation' is pretty trivial, so
really it is mostly a question of how much work to display the remote page).

Thanks in advance!

Regards,

William
