How could I go about automating the pulling of a website's html source and then sending that to a second site?

I want to create a mirror of a site, and right now I do it manually: I open a browser, load up that site, view the source code, and then copy and paste into a post in my site's cms.

I don't need step by step instructions (i'll use google for that) I just need the methods, b/c I don't know what something like this is called.

Thanks

You do have permission to do this, right? There is something called.... screen scrapingbut I'm not sure if that's what you need.

They're both my sites. One is just on a low-bandwidth host. But that scraping sounds good, thanks!
