[RESOLVED] Time out issue with file_get_contents

Inpresif

Hi,

We use this code to verify URLs from an import module:

function getTitle($Url){
	$str = file_get_contents($Url);
	if(strlen($str)>0){
		preg_match("/\<title\>(.*)\<\/title\>/",$str,$title);
		return $title[1];
		//flush();
	}
}

We call this like this:

echo "515,<b>Lens</b>," . getTitle( "http://?wi=&si=515&li=31951") ." , <a href= http://?wi=&si=515&li=31951>http://?wi=&si=515&li=31951</a><br>";

However, we have 600+ of these lines and it times out rather fast (after 10-30 records)

Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 60 seconds exceeded in admin\ajax\verify-urls.php on line 8

Is there a way to publish each X results to keep from timing out?
We truied adding flush() but that did not help. sleep() did not either.

Thanks in advance :quiet:

Maybe you should drop regex for this mission.
I'm using PHP Simple HTML DOM Parser. You could make use of PHP DOM's extension also.

include('simple_html_dom.php');
$html = new simple_html_dom();

function parse($url) {
    global $html;
    $html->load_file($url);
    return $html->find('title', 0)->innertext;
}

Hmm, same error:

Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 60 seconds exceeded in C:\admin\ajax\simplehtmldom\simple_html_dom.php on line 555

Anything else to try?

Funny thing is, on line 555 it still calls for file_get_contents;-)

555 $this->load(call_user_func_array('file_get_contents', $args), true);
