Hi,

I'm using php 4.4.4. What I want to do is hopefully simple. If I
type this URL into my browser:

http://maps.google.com/maps/geo?q=980+PEMART+AVE+PEEKSKILL,+NY+10566&;...

I get a simple comma-delimited list of data. What I would like to do
is in my PHP script, request this URL and then put the return values
into an array. How do I do this?

Thanks, - Dave

$url = 'http://maps.google.com/maps/geo?q=980+PEMART+AVE+PEEKSKILL,+NY
+10566&...';
$arr = explode(',', file_get_contents($url));
.
