doubt about fan sites

[Chefao]

I'm making a tool to see the latest habbo furniture like a fan site but I never can, how do they do it?

I've tried PHP=curl, PHP=file get contents, but it never works

$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, "https://www.habbo.com/gamedata/furnidata_xml/f6a4ed5273c975e70a74becfd411367de0d56240");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERAGENT,$_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT']);

certain fansites get given the icons of the furniture before release (Puhekupla do as i've spoke to the owner about it) for them to showcase a few months before they release

I understand, can you tell me if this site manually does this search for furniture? >

You must be registered for see links

That looks like something for retros not a real Habbo fan site.

You could make a tool that crawls the furnidata file and finds any swfs you don't have in your directory and run the script every 24 hours

Yes I tried to do this but I do not know the right command for php, tried (preg match) but it does not work I do not know the reason, there is another problem that made me give up, I got to but the revision changes for example:

You must be registered for see links

7857 is the revision id

Each furniture has a different id which complicated my code, I will leave this tool aside, thanks for the tips!

So don't use PHP? Use like C# libraries to download the file at the link and use an XML library to read the class tag for the swf name

i think this is what you need:

You must be registered for see links

you could make a cronjob that for example runs every 30 minutes and automatically download from habbo.
you can define from which domain it should download, for example com de nl ...

and with this in mind, you could even go a step further and run multiple cronjobs each downloading from a different domain.

as you see the possibilities are nearly endless. im also open for new ideas/features to implement, just let me know.
