reading from HTML and inserting in form

Question

I have to read the content from HTML file and then the parameters for different heading should be entered into the form in php and then i need to save the page and submit it so that it will be saved in the databse. I need to automate this whole process since i have approx 2000 HTML files which should be read and should be entered in a form in PHP. Do you have any idea about any tool which can help in this process. small idea will be also helpful. Note : i can not enter the contents from HTML directly into the databse from back end since there are many fields which are getting auto generated when i am saving and submitting the form.

thanks in advance.

no... i am not getting any idea about any tool which can help me in this. — purushottam

Parse the html file using DOM approach http://php.net/manual/en/book.dom.php

Use curl library to automate the process http://php.net/manual/en/book.curl.php
