fopen()

[Anon]

$handle = fopen("http://www.mypage.net/index.html", "r");
$outhandle=fopen ("test.php","w");
while (!feof($handle)) {
$buffer=fread($handle,4096);
fputs($outhandle,$buffer);
}
fclose($handle);
fclose($outhandle);

include("test.php");

this code works ok.. BUT... what if I want to get a page on port 8000 ? i have tried putting www.mypage.net:8000

I also forund som info saying "
It appears that fopen() always opens a connection to port 80 when the location string starts with "http://" .. so I tried both with and without "http://"

fopen uses 'URL wrappers' URLS default to port 80.

If you need a different port, you should open a connection manually, read about fsockopen()
