Warning: fopen("http://www.dkb2.
f2s.com/knkvdata/standen.htm","r") - Success in /web/sites/264/dkb2/www.dkb2.f2s.com/standen/index.php on line 22

i have so much trouble with fopen, is there another way to read the content of a remote file?

Thanks,

Take a look at the file() function.

are you using fpassthru() function? you have to use that in order to read the files. the fopen() function only connects to the file and opens it so that IT CAN BE read. again, the fpassthru() function is what is actually used to read and output info to your browser. check out the help for fpassthru() on php.net. if this doesn't help or unclear, i can go into a bit more detail, lemme know. good luck

I'm having similar oddness... I have a program that opens a web page and if there's a redirect, loops around and opens the new page. Exactly the same code is executed twice (so I know it's opening, reading, and closing the page)... yet the second time I get a warning-- for "No error"! Check it out, the last line is the one PHP generates:

opening http://catalog.lapl.org:80/cgi-bin/cw_cgi?6005+REDIRX+doSearch_965...

found redirect: http://catalog.lapl.org:80/cgi-bin/cw_cgi?23087+doSearch+965...

opening http://catalog.lapl.org:80/cgi-bin/cw_cgi?23087+doSearch+965...

Warning: fopen("http://catalog.lapl.org:80/cgi-bin/cw_cgi?23087+doSearch+965","r") - No error in http_post.php on line 233

If it makes a different, my code to read the file (which, like I said, works great the 1st time):

$fh = fopen($url, "r");
if(!$fh){ return 0; }
$retstr="";
while(!feof($fh)){
$resp=fgets($fh,80);
$retstr.=$resp;
//echo $resp;
}
fclose($fh);

What's goin' on here?!

The opening of the file goes wrong, the fopen function gives back an error. Therefor i cannot read it with fpassthru().

I use the following code:

/***************
$webpage="http://www.dkb2.f2s.com/knkvdata/standen.htm";
$fp=fopen($webpage,"r") or die("error");

$t=0;
while(! feof($fp))
{
$line[$t++]=fgets($fp,1024);
}
/********************

I get the following error:
Warning: fopen("http://www.dkb2.f2s.com/knkvdata/standen.htm","r") - Success in /web/sites/264/dkb2/www.dkb2.f2s.com/standen/index.php on line 22

Can you help me

Versions prior to PHP 4.0.5 do not handle HTTP redirects. Because of this, directories must include trailing slashes.
