Using fopen on a site with popups

Hey everyone! I have a question. I know that you can use fopen to open
not just local files, but also files via HTTP. My question is, assuming
you're attempting to open a page that has popups, is there anyway to get
at the actual content underneath the popup?

Thanks!

As far as I'm aware, you won't get any popups using fopen. Popups are a
thing of Javascript (or links clicked on that have a target other than
_self, _parent or _top) so just calling the page won't trigger them to
be opened.

Yeah, ummm...

Sorry for the traffic. That was a really stupid question... It looks
like the format of a page I was reading data from changed, which messed
something else up. It just recently started implementing popup ads as
well, so I blamed that, but as another poster pointed out, popups are
caused by javascript execution in the browser, so that shouldn't have
any effect on the content I read.

Me needs to get some sleep :)
