Checking E-gold Balance with PHP and cURL
I’ve been using e-gold for a while and I am very pleased with this online payment system. Especially I like their shopping card interface that allows to accept or make payments instantly. Today I’ll show you how to check e-gold balance having automation activated and server IP added. This code was written several years ago, so forget me some irregular methods 
$ch=curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, "https://www.e-gold.com/acct/balance.asp?AccountID=E-gold&Passphrase=Password");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 5);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FRESH_CONNECT, 1);
$content=curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);if($content)
{
$balancecontent=$content;
$ot1=strpos($balancecontent, 'type=hidden name=Gold_Grams');
$balancecontent=substr($balancecontent, $ot1);
$ot=strpos($balancecontent,"“)+67;
$rezcont=substr($balancecontent, $ot);
$do=strpos($rezcont, ““);
$balance=substr($balancecontent, $ot, $do);
echo $balance;
}
?>
This code will output your e-gold account balance. If not, please,check whether everything is ok with automation access (you have to confirm several times that you want to enable automation at their site).
