Curl - Absolute Path Problem. Require Help

Hi

I am displaying a third party webpage into a variable using curl
library. When i am displaying the variable in the browser using echo
command as shown below.

echo $pagecopy;

Browser is not displaying the page as it display when we visit the
page directly in browser. Instead it references all the file path,
css path, form action path to http://localhost/filenamepath OR CSS
Path or FormAction Path instead of www.xyz.com/filepath (eg,
http://www.xyz.com/books/1stGoodBook.html).

So in the browser all the css, images is not displaying properly.
since relative path is referenced to local host (http://localhost/)
instead of website domain direct path (eg. http://otherwebsite.com/).

How to rectify this problem so that it is referenced to absolute path
instead of relative path and all the css, files, webpages works
properly.

Do you have permission from the third party to use his website?
Otherwise it may be unethical, even illegal, to show his page on your
site.

Having said that, the problem is with the HTML. If the HTML references
a file like so:
<img src="foo.jpg" alt="Picture of a Foo" />
Then the browser requests that file from the same server and the same
directory as the referencing page. So if this page is at http://www.example..com/bar/,
the image should be at http://www.example.com/bar/foo.jpg.

No need for concern, all you need to do is rewrite all file
references, such as those in image tags, or download all referenced
files to your own server.

Provided you have the approval of the site owner, off course.
