Strange webpage file problem...

[Kold]

<?php
$fn = "http://localhost/index.php";
$fh = fopen($fn, "r");
$Contents .= fread($fh, 50000); //filesize($fn));
fclose($fh);

echo nl2br(htmlspecialchars($Contents));
?>

This code seems to stop reading the file at random points, sometimes it returns a little bit of the page, sometimes a bit more.

The most i see is 8769b getting displayed.
5964b and 3610b are 2 others. These 3 are the only sizes that get displayed, no others.

Does anyone know whats going on? The page it is getting is a static HTML page, so nothings wrong there.

Server caching prob perhaps? timeout?

Thanks!
K.

[EDIT] - filesize is commented as it didnt work, it said it couldnt get the stats or something... any help on that would be cool too!

i'd try either of these two pieces of code.

<?php
$fn = "http://localhost/index.php";
$fh = fopen($fn, "r");
while (!feof($fh)) {
  $Contents .= fgets($fh, 4096);
}
fclose($fh);

echo nl2br(htmlspecialchars($Contents));
?> 

or

<?php
$Contents = file_get_contents("http://localhost/index.php");

echo nl2br(htmlspecialchars($Contents));
?> 

when you used filesize it said it couldnt stat the file because information such as filesizes are not available on urls beginning with [url]http://[/url] [url]ftp://[/url] etc...
