Open URL with php

[Anon]

hi!

how cn i open a URL with php??

Thanks for your answer!

[Anon]

the filesystem functions of php will work for urls, just make sure you have "http://something.something" as the filename

there is function called file.
it takes a url, reads all of that file and
returns its contents in an array.
one element for each line of the file.
hope this helps,
stef

Is there any way to do this for a dynamic url location? like http://www.google.com/search?q=blah

?

no, it doesn't help.

Try this

$fp=fopen(\"$filename\",\"r\");
fseek($fp,$numpoint);
$content=fread($fp,filesize(\"$filename\"));
fclose($fp);
