As you asked the question in a php newsgroup, I assume you wish to use php 
code to retrieve The term you need to google may be "php curl".

However, as a simpler interface, if the php configuration allows it, you 
can also use a url as a filename to open a file. What you then do with 
the data you receive by reading from the file handle is up to you.

This of course assumes that you know the url that you want to retrieve.

If you're not using php to do the automatic download, you're asking in 
the wrong place. How "automatic" do you wish it to be? If you want it to 
happen every minute / hour / day / week etc you may wish to look up the 
scheduling mechanism on your system (usually cron on a linux/unix etc 
box, but I have no idea what you're actually using).
