PHP - Add To Contacts Dillema

I am writing a google contact API to get users contacts, I get everything back except for the email address of the contact.

Anyone know how to get the contacts email address?

Code: [Select]
<?php
class gdata{
private $headers;
private $googleAuth = 'http://www.google.com/mate/feeds';
private $google = 'http://www.google.com/mate/feeds/contacts/default/full';
public $token;
public function headers(){
$this->headers['GData-Version'] = '3.0';
$this->headers['Authorization'] = "AuthSub token=\"$this->token\"";
$this->headers['Content-Type'] = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded";
$this->headers['Host'] = "www.google.com";
$this->headers['User-Agent'] = "php/".phpversion();
$this->headers['Accept'] = "text/html, image/gif, image/jpeg, *; q=.2, */*; q=.2";
$this->headers['Connection'] = "keep-alive";
}
public function request_contacts($email){
$ch = curl_init();
$headers = array();
foreach($this->headers as $k => $v){
$headers[] = "$k: $v";
}
$url = preg_replace("/\[email_address\]/", $email, $this->google);
echo $url;
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $this->google);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $headers);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
$opt = curl_exec($ch);
$xml = simplexml_load_string($opt);
header("Content-type: text/plain");
foreach($xml->entry as $user){
//echo $user['link']
}
print_r($xml->entry[5]);
}
public function auth(){
$next =  'http://'.$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'].$_SERVER['PHP_SELF'].'?a=getContacts';
header("Location: https://www.google.com/accounts/AuthSubRequest?next=".urlencode($next)."&scope=".urlencode($this->googleAuth)."&session=1&secure=0");
}
}

$gAPI = new gdata();

if($_GET['a'] == 'getContacts'){
$gAPI->token = $_GET['token'];
$gAPI->headers();
$gAPI->request_contacts('untuned20@gmail.com');
}else{
$gAPI->auth();
}

?>

Good day all.

 

I am trying to get strings from txt file with a start and an end.

 

$file = "/var/www/html/sataxicrm/custom/include/language/lang.en_us.lists.php";
$content = file_get_contents($file);
$pos = strpos($content,"query_complaint_type_list");
$end = strpos($content,"status_0");
$string = substr($content,$pos,($end- $pos));
$array = nl2br($string);
//print $content;
echo "Database Value:Label Value <br>";
print $array;

The above code works well if you knowwhat your end string is, but in my case i do not know. i only know the start.
Below is an example of the text

As you can see i know it starts with account_type_dom but i do not know that it will end before industry_dom. so i need to stop before industry_dom. how do i do this?

 

Quote

account_type_dom
    @clear
    "": ""
    @orig Customer
    "Brand Owner ": "Brand Owner "
    Printing Company: Printing Company
    Installation Company: Installation Company
    Sales Person: Sales Person
    Zebra: Zebra
industry_dom
    @clear
    "": ""
    @orig Apparel
    @orig Banking
    @orig Biotechnology
    @orig Chemicals

I need to write a code were users can login to his/her email account from my site to import contacts to be selected and used. I know you need to use api's for this. Has anyone done this before who can give me some useful tips?

How can I recover deleted iphone contacts?

I have a PHP application and am trying to allow users to import contacts from their favorite email systems.  Right now, I'm targeting yahoo, gmail and hotmail - facebook friends would also be interesting.  I'll need to allow users to log in, of course, and then have all of their contacts pulled into my application.  From there, I'll present them to the user and allow them to pick which ones they want to email about my application.  The important part is that I need to have control over what happens to the contact list to control certain aspects of my application.

So, here are my questions:
> Is CURL the right method to use to do this?
> Are there practical examples available that I can use and where might I find them?
> What things would I need to be aware of and prepare for regarding security/hacking since I'm accessing remote sites?

Thanks for your guidance.
