You might be interested in learning more about XML-RPC, which will allow
cross-platform language-neutral XML documents to generate events or
perform remote procedural calls (RPC).
You can use any language that can parse XML documents, which of course
includes our beloved PHP. This article focuses on Python, but it's just
an introduction and the theory is the same for PHP:

Hi,
I am developing site that needs to have stock quotes retrieved and
placed into the database. Perhaps someone know if there is a site that
would supply me with quotes? - I just do not want to do it manually :-((
I guess I could setup a cron job to run @ midnight and update quotes for
selected stocks but I am not sure where to access quotes - any pointers?
Thanks
Paul
