Why don't they make this available via XML? Parsing HTML is painful.

That just shows a chart. How are you supposed to parse anything out of

$fp =
fopen('http://www.asx.com.au/scripts/nd_ISAPI_50.dll/asx/research/chartsSearch.jsp?searchBy=asxCode&TimeFrame=D&asxCode=ASX','r');
should work just fine to get the HTML.
