Check if new version available?

Hi, I would do this using the main page of http://codeigniter.com/

Just navigate to html->body#home->div#wrapperWit->div#gooey->div#home_banner->ul->li[0]->em using simplehtmldom(http://simplehtmldom.sourceforge.net/), DOMDocument Class(http://php.net/manual/en/class.domdocument.php) or any other DOM parser of your choice

That html code never changes AFAIK, just set up your script so that you get an email whenever the version value is not returned. This way, you will know when you need to make changes to your script whenever EllisLab decides to change the markup on the home page.
