although i never needed to do such a thing, but you can open the PHP file with the file system functions fopen,fread,fgets ... and work with it using string functions strpos(),substr() ...

File system functions: http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.filesystem.php
String functions: http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.strings.php

good luck!
