How...

Is it possible to remote login to a website with PHP?

For instance, I want to login to myspace through my own PHP script to say that a friend of mine is a friend (thus allowing me to get their data, [how many comments they have, total friends, etc.] Is this possible?

Yes, you can use the PHP extension cURL or simply use sockets.

I can't help you any more though as I may not be allowed to go in to detail, but if you want to know how to use cURL just visit php.net/curl

mm, but the problem is, i have a script, it gets some things from any myspace page. And if it was a cURL doesn't that mean i would have to login manually

You use cURL to send your login details to the MySpace login age and then to store the cookies MySpace creates to keep you logged in.

Oh okay!!

Sounds too confusing for such little use..
