Would anyone know how to search an external html file for a work or phrase ?

I was thinking something like this --

Code: <?php
if (isset($_POST['submitted'])) {

$xurl_1 = $_POST['url_1'];
$xtext_1 = $_POST['text_1'];

function check_1($url_1, $text_1){
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL,$url_1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1);
$result=curl_exec ($ch);
curl_close ($ch);

preg_match ("|<[pP]>".$text_1."</[pP]>|i", $result, $matches);

if (count($matches)>0){
$i=true;
}else{
$i=false;
}
return $i;
}

if(check_1( $xurl_1, $xtext_1)){
echo "Text found";
}else{
echo "Text not found";
}

} else {
?>

<h3>Link Verifier</h3>
<form action="<?php $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>" method="post">
<p><b>URL :</b> <input type="text" name="url_1" size="30" value="" /></p>
<p><b> Exist :</b> <input type="text" name="text_1" size="30" value="" /></p>
<div align="center"><input type="submit" name="submit" value="Check" /></div>
<input type="hidden" name="submitted" value="TRUE" />
</form>
<?php
}
?>

Unfortunently, that doesn't work..

it say:
