$file = "

http://blah/file.ext"

$fp = fopen($file);
$contents = fread($fp, filesize($file));

You'll have to sort out the header info and other stuff that HTTP1.0 carries with it, but it works --BB

As simple as this:

$file=implode("",file("

http://www.tek-tips.com"));

hmm,ok I try using this code:

<?
$file = &quot;<

http://www.mydomain.net>;

$fp = fopen($file);
$contents = fread($fp, filesize($file));
?>

but it keeps coming up with an error:


Parse error: parse error in c:\inetpub\

http://wwwroot\zrc\sc\index.php

on line 5

any ideas what I'm doing wrong,??

thanks for your time!

you dont want the

<

or the

>

around the url... you also forgot a trailing quote... Anikin has the right idea... use his code. Both examples will work though -gerrygerry

my code has a semicolon more than needed ...

$file=implode(&quot;&quot;,file(&quot;

http://www.tek-tips.com&quot;));

this is the right code.

another thing, the fact of having 2 semicolons in a row is not the bug. he forgot to close the double quotes. That's the parse error. Anikin
