Well, there are various obstacles that you will need to check:

= Curl support compiled in?

= php version requirement for file_get_contents (4.3+, I think)?

= Security setting 'allow_url_fopen' set to 1, ie may open files via a URL?

Although I'm no expert, I'd agree the task isn't huge once you get the basics working.  Using and the examples for file_get_contents, strip_tags and even simple ones like fgets and htmlentities (for when you're testing) should get you across the line.

Hope that helps.
