URL in fpassthru

[fr600]

Hi guys,

A silly question, is there gonna be any problem if I use URL in fpassthru instead of PATH? 🙁

for e.g.
$file ="http://www.domain.com/img/ok.png";

instead of:
$file = ".\public\dev\img\ok.png";

It did work on localhost but when I uploaded the script to a windows server, it didn't... 🙁

it does work, BUT it may be:
1. disabled (allow_url_fopen "0" in php ini)
2. you may get the html output only from the other site if it has php enabled and has executed your script..
i dont know why you'd want to fpassthru a php script ? because fpassthru does not execute any opened php code, it only shows it, therefor it wouldn't matter if the other site showed you the php code anyway..

The reason is I tried to use fpassthru in a script on a Windows Server to secure files but it didn't work. Coding was perfect but still didn't work.
