bad file descriptor when using file()

[Anon]

Hello,

I'm trying to execute following code:

$sitename is just a website http://www.someting.com that i'm trying to put into $var.

trim($sitename);

$var = $file($sitename);

when i try to do that i get some error saying bad file descriptor. How come it's doing that? Doesn't really makes sense, is it another bug in php?

Have you tried using the function urlencode()...or something like that?
